Piper (Single Version)

I'm on the back porch flyin' a Texas banner

Starin' starlight, speakin' that country grammar

While the front page argue nothin' but the chatter

Nobody ask me what you think about the matters

Nobody ask me what we doin' in the shadows

Well, pardon me

I believe we could do one more better than the game that's already been won

Tomorrow, sleepin' with one eye open 'cause of deals that are already done

I say, somebody pay the piper

And they tip him alright, ooh

It might just be the lightning that I'm sippin'

But I agree that I'm right, oh

Somebody pay the piper

Count that money but twice

('Cause you know it's true)

No turnin' hands hands of time back, no, no

No more turnin' out lights, ooh

Nobody asked me nothin' (Rats)

Ooh, pardon me

Loose laws and trouble may find you (Nobody ask me nothin')

Antiquated, pay no mind to (Well, pardon me)

May truer lines help guide you (Nobody ask me nothin')

And unopened doors invite you (Ooh, well, pardon me)

Tin soldiers shimmer silent

World will turn or tire itself out

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm on the back porch with my friends, takin' chances

'Til some polite words start wrestlin' answers

Cures will come and go 'til the sun advances

Nobody asked me what you think about the matters

Nobody asked me, you think you could do it better

Well, pardon me

I believe we could do one more better than the game that's already been won

Tomorrow, sleepin' with one eye open 'cause of deals that are already done

I say, somebody pay the piper

And they tip him alright, ooh

It might just be the lightning that I'm sippin'

But I agree that I'm right, oh

Somebody pay the piper

Count that money but twice

('Cause you know it's true)

No turnin' hands hands of time back, no, no

No more turnin' out lights, ooh

Nobody asked me nothin' (Rats)

Uh, what do I know? Uh, huh

Nobody ask me nothin' (Rats)

I was 'bout to say nothin'

What do I know?

What do I know?

Nobody asked me nothin'
