Rule #3 - Paperwork

de Fish in a Birdcage

We lit a flame just to watch it burn
Have we lost our roots, our ties to the earth
What I have seen has made me believe
That we've buried ourself in paperwork
Instead of planting trees

Kick back, relax
Buddy, don’t have a heart attack
What's the harm in wanting to play some good tunes?
It's your loss, not mine
We just wanted to improve the lives of all those people trapped inside
Dealing with their paperwork

There are rules that appeared in place
In our minds
And in there they stay
It's in our heads!
Why can't you see-
That we've buried ourself in paperwork
Instead of planting seeds, oh

Kick back, relax
Buddy, don't have a heart attack
What's the harm in wanting to play some good tunes?
It’s your loss, not mine
We just wanted to improve the lives of all those people trapped inside
Dealing with their paperwork

We hauled our souls
Through the dull and plain
When every day felt exactly the same
We’ve taught our hands the discipline to spread
Love to the streets
So don't bother us with paperwork
Instead, go plant some trees, oh

Kick back, relax
Buddy, don’t have a heart attack
What's the harm in wanting to play some good tunes?
It's your loss, not mine
We just wanted to improve the lives of all those people trapped inside
Dealing with their paperwork

We buried ourself in paperwork
Instead of planting trees
Buried ourselves in paperwork
Instead of planting seeds
We buried ourself in paperwork
Instead of bein' free
