Lyrics
the star cutter hangs his knife to cool
and the sky remains black in patches all around
the weaver runs her thread off of her spool
and the blanket she wove barely covers the ground
but it's even
by some kind of measure
its even
the fisherman's catch was made small
by a dull hook so he proclaimed the sea empty
the schools were unimpressed by it's familiar
rusted look
so in the depths they swam on gently
it's even
by some kind of measure
it's even
the giant stuck his finger in an earthen hole and found it trapped with the pain of pulling the spikes had been laid by the wizard for the moles who had suffered greatly by the giants bullying
so now it's even
by some kind of measure
it's even
