Contemplative Folk/Americana by a Presenstentialst Singer/Songwriter
Put the Spoon Down, Boy
words and music by Chapman James
You wanna play the quintessential victim?
You're so entitled to that shame
Everyday you need another rescue
Everyday there's someone new to blame
Chorus:
Put the spoon down boy
The silver spoon down boy
Put the spoon down boy
And you'll be fine
You wanna fly from all your consequences?
You wanna freeze when problems come to call?
You wanna fight the flow of all that karma
Down every waterfall
Chorus:
Bridge:
Life can feel so under-rated
Love can sound so out of tune
Hope can seem a little cliche
When you're starin at the spoon
Knowledge doesn't always lead to wisdom
Knowing lots of things that just aren't so
Try a little 'Living the Moment'?
A little holding on by letting go?
