Big Sixes swallowing flies

I'm swallowing flies,
And lullabies,
Won't you listen?
I'm severing ties,
And polishing lies,
'till they glisten.
What do you take me for?
A pawn or a king?
A future or present?
What do you keep me for?
All manner of things 'till I learn my lesson.
'Till I learn.
Our paths are entwined,
So laugh in disguise,
Go the distance.
I'm far from unkind,
So darling of mine,
Won't you listen?
What do you take me for?
A pawn or a king?
A future or present?
What do you keep me for?
All manner of things 'till I learn my lesson.
'Till I learn.
If you and I settle our differences,
I think you'll find a way to come back to me.
If you and I settle our differences,
I think you'll find a way to come back to me.
A way to come back to me.
A way to come back to me
What do you take me for?
A pawn or a king?
A future or present?
What do you keep me for?
All manner of things 'till I learn my lesson.
