That it was the laughter drove the man away
Some misinformation to lead you astray
"Older and wiser" is what they'd always say

Eloquent, and absolutely nothing did he say
The less we heard, the less confused that we were made
Information wasn’t all he never gave away

Eleven more months rent have just been paid

August first, his letter read aloud today
Eloquent, and absolutely nothing did he say
The less we heard, the less confused that we were made
Information wasn't all he never gave away
