Problem With Solutions - Jim Guthrie

When I tip-toed down to see the somebody

Shocked the somebody was me

That’s the silliest thing I’ve heard

Things get wierder every day

But truth it stays

I’ll eat the horse if the horse eats hay

Went out drinking and

Had a few

Lord only knows what I

Said to you

In a smoky bar downtown

People swirling all around

Everyone starts to look the same

If you softly whisper their name

In a smoky bar downtown

The longer the hesitation

The smaller the celebration

A guide to our salvation

The problem with solutions

Read a book and thought of you

Thought of all the things I don’t do

Doing do not doing say

Sometimes words just sound like noise

Other times noise makes the prettiest sounds

And noise it gets around

I am lost and I am found

When I tip-toed down to see

The somebody

Shocked the somebody was me

That’s the silliest thing I’ve heard

Things get weirder everyday

But weirder all truths stay

I’ll eat the horse if the horse eats hay

The longer the hesitation

The smaller the celebration

A guide to our salvation

The problem with solutions
