Jonnie Common – Figurehead (Dry) Lyrics

I'm wet
Behind the ears
I've been cleaning
All my ideas

A good old band
They've been... had
They've been formed
If not entirely planned

And they deserve
My attention
Though I can't finish everything that I start
I have the best intentions

There's not enough time
I hope they understand
I'm only making one trip
And I've only got one pair of hands

I'm set
Or shall we preprogram
Digital safety net
In lieu of a band

But it's no substitute
For the friends I've had
The same ones I've lost
Over something
That I can't take back

I'm wet
behind the ears
Like a ship wrecked figurehead
Rotting at the bottom of the sea
