The Balancing Act - A TV Guide in the Olduvai Gorge lyrics

Who built these houses? Who took apart these trees? With a shovel and a toothbrush They have brought me to my knees Now I'm dresed for the invasion These not much I'm afraid to find Just a half-forgotten prospect In the ruins of my mind It's a TV Guide in the Olduvai Gorge... Birds who'd rather walk Stony statues shedding tears Though I trust these words I read Still I can't believe her ears Now she beckons with a pitchfork And a crackling cathode face But even when I'm next to her I feel a little out of place Like a TV Guide in the Olduvai Gorge... These's a shyness in your shoulder And a tremor in your tread Yes I can tell you don't belong here Now that I have trained my head So let me clean your windshield While you're resting for the climb And I can help you understand Why we can never be in time Like a TV Guide in the Olduvai Gorge...
