On Deaf Ears Peter Hammill

On Deaf Ears - Peter Hammill
A lost apostrophe's
Come all adrift
Suspended in mid-sentence
So the sense is all skew-whiff
And nobody's listening now

The art of persuasion
Sifting fiction from fact
Diversion, smoke and mirrors
It's all part of the act
So no-one's really listening
In the audience
Time will tell
Just how much is soft soap
And how much hard sell

In the audience
The five minute bell
Toils underwater
This won't end up well

Here's the one-trick pony
With all the gift of the gab
You never know the worth of what you have

He's sold his stock of baloney
Giving it one final stab
He never entertained the slightest doubt
You never know when time is running out
