Magical Tipsy Toes

Don’t move
Don’t talk out of time
Don’t think
Don’t worry
Everything’s just fine
Just fine

Don’t grab
Don’t clutch
Don’t hope for too much
Don’t breathe
Don’t achieve
Or grieve without leave
Don’t check
Just balance on the fence
Don’t answer
Don’t ask
Don’t try and make sense
Don’t whisper
Don’t talk

Don’t run if you can walk
Don’t cheat, compete
Don’t miss the one beat
Don’t travel by train
Don’t eat
Don’t spill
Don’t piss in the drain
Don’t make a will
Don’t fill out any forms
Don’t compensate
Don’t cower
Don’t crawl
Don’t come around late
Don’t hover at the gate
Don’t take it on board
Don’t fall on your sword
Just play another chord
If you feel you’re getting bored

I feel numb
I feel numb
Too much is not enough
I feel numb

Don’t change your brand
Don’t listen to the band
Don’t gape
Don’t ape
Don’t change your shape
Have another grape

Gimme what you got
Gimme what I don’t get
Gimme some more

Too much is not enough
I feel numb
I feel numb
Gimme some more
A piece of me, baby
I feel numb

Don’t plead
Don’t bridle
Don’t shackle

Don’t grind
Don’t curve
Don’t swerve
Lie, die, serve
Don’t theorize, realise, polarise
Glance, dance,dismiss, apologise

Gimme some more
I feel numb
Gimme some more
I feel numb
Gimme what you got

Gimme what I don’t get
Gimme what you got
Too much is not enough

Don’t spy
Don’t lie
Don’t try
Imply
Detain
Explain

I feel numb

Start again
Don’t triumph
Don’t coax
Don’t cling
Don’t hoax
Don’t freak
Don’t Peak
Don’t leak

Don’t speak
Don’t project
Don’t connect
Protect
Don’t expect
Suggest

I feel numb

Don’t project
Don’t connect
Protect
Don’t expect
Suggest

I feel numb

Don’t struggle
Don’t jerk
Don’t collar
Don’t work
Don’t wish
Don’t fish
Don’t teach
Don’t reach

I feel numb

Don’t borrow
Don’t break
Don’t fence
Don’t steal
Don’t pass
Don’t press
Don’t try
Don’t feel
Too much is not enough

I feel numb

Don’t touch
Don’t dive
Don’t suffer
Don’t rhyme
Don’t fantasize
Don’t rise
Don’t lie

I feel numb

Don’t project
Don’t connect

Protect
Don’t expect
Suggest

I feel numb

Don’t project
Don’t connect

Protect
Don’t expect
Suggest

I feel numb
