Big Ideas Songtext
von I, A Man

I′ve been told that honesty's cold
So I hide all my big ideas
Twilight fades as pilgrims dance on hope′s parade
Mice are in the corner playing the hotel
Foundations built without ties
Vicious bite for those who bite
Kids from the sticks are flying

Guess it's time to get out, guess it's time to get out
Guess it′s time to get out, guess it′s time to get out
Guess it's time to get out, guess it′s time to get out
Guess it's time to get out, guess it′s time to get out

All of our big hopes died
When all my teachings lied
Keeping appearances
Taught me to lie a lot


In Chinatown the dreamer kids
Hold hands on the pavement split
Maybe we should take a car
Like conversations with your spit
Or a scene filled with cliche shtick
It's comforting to know discomfort′s not too far away

Guess it's time to get out, guess it's time to get out
Guess it′s time to get out, guess it′s time to get out
Guess it's time to get out, guess it′s time to get out
Guess it's time to get out, guess it′s time to get out

All of our big hopes died
When all my teachings lied
Keeping appearances
Taught me to lie a lot

Even through evenings as
There'll be countless tries
True to the plot
Big ideas were lost
