rule #3 - paperwork - fish in a birdcage lyrics

[spoken] (poem written by cody bardwell)
the sun hides in its bed as the warm resonation of a wayward writer’s guitar meets the air with antic*p*tion of it’s morning debut. the receiving ears lay unknowingly in silence, preparing for the constant assault of noise forced on them by the bustle of the populated city. the music being crafted is a gift; a beautiful example of a human being selflessly spreading the flame of joy’s candle to the world flowing around him. those few seconds of organized sound vanquish the dull hum of the everyday, and temporarily free people from routine patterns of thought. the ear catches the sound as it waves through the air, and the brain, sometimes unknowingly, creatively responds to this curious audible phenomena. the writer’s words are one of the few remaining ties that hold creativity afloat in a sea of monotony resulting from the surrounding industrialization

[sung]
we lit a flame just to watch it burn
have we lost our roots; our ties to the earth
what i have seen has made me believe
we’ve buried ourselves in paper work
instead of planting trees

kick back relax buddy don’t have a heart attack what’s the harm in wanting to play some good tunes it’s your loss not mine we just wanted to improve the lives of all the people stuck inside dealing with paperwork

there are rules that appeared in place
in our minds in there they stay
it’s in our heads why can’t you see
we’ve buried ourselves in paperwork
instead of planting seeds

we’ve hauled our souls to change the dull and plain
when everyday felt exactly the same
we’ve taught our hands the discipline to spread love on the streets
don’t silence us with paperwork
go and plant some trees
kick back relax buddy don’t have a heart attack what’s the harm in wanting to play some good tunes it’s your loss not mine we just wanted to improve the lives of all the people stuck inside dealing with paperwork
