Idiots with Guitars

Music and Lyric by Dennis Davison

Simpleton with strings, neglected serenade

Semaphore he sings, no one comes to his aid

Learn to barely play, then dream the day away

Pay to play

Chase a goal that you will never realize

Blind your eyes

Ignore pointless words to the wise

Idiots with guitars

Take to smarts like Joan of Arc to the fire

Idiots with guitars

Center stage and all alone in the dark

Every note you play met with indifference

No one saves the day, and runs to your defense

Waste your time and try to find a simple rhyme

It’s your dime

Fool yourself, but no one else, they’re on to you

What to do?

Resume like you haven’t a clue

Idiots with guitars

Mush for brains and nothing else to rely on

Idiots with guitars

Center stage and all alone in the dark

Lights grow dim on you

It’s clear to all you’re through

All but you know who?

Rejection’s nothing new

Resume like you haven’t a clue

Idiots with guitars

Take to smarts like Joan of Arc to the fire

Idiots with guitars

Center stage and all alone in the dark
