[Verse 1]
There's a real bad larry
From the screw-loose sanctuary
And out here, there's no time for grievin'
Try to keep the surface even
And the floor gave me splinters
I'm a worm of many winters
When you hear the mourning doves a-cooin'
Gotta keep the circus movin'
[Pre-Chorus]
'Til I lose my way or what to say
[Chorus]
I don't know what they're tellin' you
Little things are easy to lose
[Verse 2]
Well, the lines, they get blurry
When there's no real need to hurry
I can't tell you last time I've eaten
Or how a bitter heart keeps beatin'
Leave the weepin' to the willow
There's a little blood on my pillow
Well, that's how I mark my territory
You know the ending to this story
[Pre-Chorus]
Do I round the bend and find a friend?
[Chorus]
I don't know what they're tellin' you
Little things are easy to lose
[Verse 3]
Once or twice, you can hit me
You're the only one who's standin' with me
Got no time for a world so hollow
Or those who fear tomorrow
Well, I better get on goin'
In Benson, I can tell it's snowin'
When that pin pops your little bubble
See my face in every puddle
[Pre-Chorus]
Do I tuck my tail and give up the trail?
[Chorus]
I don't know what they're tellin' you
Little things are easy to lose
I don't know what they're tellin' you
Little things are easy to lose
Little things are easy
I don't know what they're tellin' you
Little things are easy to lose
Little things are easy to lose
