lyrics

Being lonely is just a state of mid
Or is it physical? Is it just about touch?
No one wants to remain on display:
Are you user friendly? Do you come with that car?
Well, I hope so…
I sure hope so.

/ This old suit,
With its worn hands and its tired eyes
Lays on a couch and just can’t get up

This suit,
Wearing black hair, wearing dark eyes
Travels embracing a worn and old briefcase /

Don’t Burn The Suit, Man !
Just remember the fire of life
Is what you seek

Don’t blame the briefcase !
‘cause you carry it. The fire of life
is all you need

And ardour for life and love


/ A soul adrift a dory of propriety
A man astray, castrated by anxiety
Seeking appreciation
Crippled by expectation

He’s dissolved into his suit
And he’s consumed by his briefcase
He’s left no trace! /

Don’t Burn The Suit, Man !
Just remember the fire of life
Is what you seek

Don’t blame the briefcase !
‘cause you carry it. The fire of life
is all you need

And ardour for life and love

Look! The trees!
The branches waving at you!
Can’t you see?
The leaves are dancing with you!
