I've Tried Subtlety

Lyrics for I've Tried Subtlety

All the kids from 916 came down And were misdirected trying to find the grounds The Regency Hotel Prom royals eyeing adult-life means to excel Down into the city-planning flats Near Victoria Park a block they gathered at Old masters on the door Re-styled to stand for some political reform Under-civilized time, older-siblingized crime And my car got stripped to the frame And well it feels about the same Lots of distance gone in vain And darlings this one is for you I've tried subtlety before but I will not anymore For some looking down surveillance vans M.I.T. grad alley cats with time on their hands Oh sergeant, I'm sorry In my line of work they don't teach no courtesy Gifted children link your arms in rhyme Better make this world while still it gives you time Oh will you look so vain Left to the purging jets like garbage in the rain Wish I could with someone what I do alone Should I just stay at home? Should I just make the whole thing up as I go? But what do I really know? Lots of quickness now turned slow And darlings this one is for you I've tried subtlety before but I will not anymore
