Franklin Bruno — narrow shoulders lyrics

Lyrics

Tell me, with your eyes set close together
Do you see the things ordinary mortals see?
Say it’s a surprise, knock me over with a feather
When you’ve earned your wings, will you even notice me?
Envy’s a sin, but so is pride
Now you can watch me begin preparations for the big backslide
But would it make your narrow shoulders wide as mine
If you had to share the weight that I bear, down the line?
Lookin' like a corduroy cadaver
Sing to me about places we have never gone
What if I grew bored with this palaver
Leadin' me to doubt everything I’ve leaned upon?
I take the stage, they yawn and nod
You do the same, and they treat you like Scheherazade
But would it make your narrow shoulders broad as mine
If you had to share the weight that I bear, down the line?
When you have to share the weight that I bear, down the line
