Lyrics of a song Graham Parker - SHARPENING AXES

Intro    b b b b b b c b  (then)  a a a a a a b a

(0ver)   Em                       Dm7                (twice)

 

Em                        Dm7

I'm not selling molasses I'm not pushing tea

Em                                 Dm7

I don't appeal to the masses and they don't appeal to me

Em                             Dm7

I'm not peddling fiction     I'm not packaging youth

Em                                Dm7

I've got a predilection for the truth

 

BRIDGE #1

          Am                          Dm

I can't stand it any longer I can't suffer any more fools

          Am                                Dm

I'm gonna keep on sharpening axes till I've got the sharpest tools

          C                        Gm

I can't access information comin' down the mainframe

         C                      Gm           Bm      A   Bm      A

Those puerile incantations in couplets or quatrains

 

Watch it all run amok now watch those idiots score

Till you can't remember that they're idiots any more

Watch that stain increasing spreading out across the earth

Till you can't remember what anything is worth

 

BRIDGE #2

I can't stand it any longer I can't listen to any more words

I'm gonna keep on sharpening axes till they cut right through this dirt

I can't access information comin down the satellite beam

All I hear is psycho babble and I don't know what it means
