lyrics

Down to the corner
And around the bend
Early in the evening
As the moon was lent
I made my way down that dusty road
Where they say wise men they tend to go

But when I got there I was barely even on my feet
And they ain't got nothin' to say, nothin' to say to me

Well I laid there like a dying dog
And nursed my own lonely weary head
I caught a glimpse through the blinding fog
Just to try to hear what the wise men said

But when I came to they were running on down the street
Guess they ain't got nothin' to say, nothin' to say to me

Past the lamp posts and faded lots
I chased them down through the city streets
Just to hear what the wise men thought
About my latest and rare disease

But when I caught them they nodded and clamped their teeth
Guess they ain't got nothin' to say, nothin' to say to me

With these wise men, how long I'd plead
And beg for guidance or advice to heed
I'd say, I've got two paths I need your help
Would you want me to decide myself

And their silence, it spoke the world to me
I answered my own question before they could speak
And they didn't need nothin to say for me to finally see
