lyrics

map

Stand in the classroom, search for words, don’t shout
go back over the last thing you heard
put your left foot in, your left foot out
listen to the letters, hear the complaints
put your foot in the footsteps of the saints

And turn the paper over
Don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse

Keep the tasks simple, hang your washing on clips
look out to the mountain, stretch your legs
ride your bike slowly on the left side of the road
check you have your watch, your wallet, your cap, keys, your phone

don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse
don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse
don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse
just turn the paper over

solo

It shouldn’t bother you
to be walking alone across a bridge
It shouldn’t bother you
to be going back over the things you did to get you here
It shouldn’t bother you
walking east to west and further up the river
It shouldn’t bother you
just try to be truthful try to be clear

don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse
just turn the paper over
don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse
just turn the paper over
don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse
turn the paper over

don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse
three lines and a house make a map
don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse
three lines and a house make a map

don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse
three lines and a house make a map

don’t blink don’t panic don’t collapse
three lines and a house make a map
