lyrics

THE HEART OF EVERYTHING

What is the heart of everything
what makes also the mute birds sing
and what makes your sore legs swing
what makes the tin man into bling
— what is the heart of everything

Sometimes it’s fenced off with barbed wire
sometimes it’s simply here for hire
but when it sets your heart on fire
when there’s this burning called desire
— what is the heart of everything

All the walls will tumble down
all the fences, they will rot
when the circus comes to town
with four letters, the whole lot
— what is the heart of everything
