Semaphore Signal - Radio Edit

I had other ideas
I was writing them down in my
Big book of sinners
Grifters and wasters
I had other ideas
I was busy compiling lists
Of bored girls & south-paws
Bright eyes & slack jaws
I had other ideas
They were coming to me thick & fast now
Like crows in a coma
Dripping & swooping

Oh... let them go
No... you'll never get no rest
Till you get yourself

I didn't see the sign, the danger up ahead
All I could hear was cheering from the sidelines
As far as I could see, the flags were all for me
I never saw the outline of your semaphore signal... no
No

Yeah

I had other ideas
But I forget them all now
& I'm livin' on I told you so's
B-stock & old Cheetos
I had other ideas
Like the one about selling chemistry sets
& kazoos galore
Hand to mouth, door to door
I had other ideas
But now I'm standing in line
With all these cutters & crawlers
Hand-standers & brawlers
I had other ideas
I'd conjure up blue shaker-makers
& pour in the concrete
Then tie them to my feet

Oh... let them go, no
You'll never get no rest
Till you get yourself

I didn't see the sign
All I could hear was cheering
As far as I could see
I never saw the outline... no

I didn't see the sign, the danger up ahead
All I could hear was cheering from the sidelines
As far as I could see, the flags were all for me
I never saw the outline of your semaphore signal... no
