Don't Listen

from Uranium Tea by Harry Kelley

about

Peggy tries gently to persuade Edith to listen to reason. Reason being, of course, Peggy. She knows better, but she can't help trying.

lyrics

Wish I could make you to see what I see for you,
But you don't listen.
Thank God you don't listen.
Thank God that you won't.

If I could figure out your life,
Where to live who to marry,
Don't listen.
No, not for a second.
Whatever, just don't.

Pretty clear that I would love to tell you
What you should do,
Answer every single question.

Have no fear. I've given up the idea
that I have any idea what's even
good for me myself!

Maybe, though, if you just listen to what I think
May be the answer,
A second opinion,
Apart from you own, like mine—

It could help clarify problems
You don't realize are real problems
And maybe, just maybe,
You won't end up alone
