Текст песни Poised and Ready

You're poised and ready, unable to make a sound

Your hands are sweaty as you look down

You're running already when you've hit the ground

You're willing and able, so nice to have around

The head of the table is tightly wound

The noise is loud, so turn it down

When you think about it, try to wrap your head around it

You find none of it makes any sense at all

And people you once trusted are now looking so disgusted

And they're waiting anxiously for you to fall

You take for granted and take what you can grab

Forsake what's landing into your lap

You shake the hand and take a stab

There's no need to doubt it

There's never been two ways about it

It takes a thick skin

There's ways around it but no way inBrendan Benson - Poised and Ready - http://ru.motolyrics.com/brendan-benson/poised-and-ready-lyrics.html

And when you think about it, try to wrap your head around it

You find none of it makes any sense at all

And people you once trusted are now looking so disgusted

And they're waiting anxiously for you to fall

And there you go, turning everybody you know

Turning a one man show, so take a look around you now

And suck it up and take a bow

You're living and crawling and trying to catch a breath

You're stalling and dying a sudden death

And all the while you second guess

And now the time has come to for it to stop

The crowd was done, so call the cops

You're like a boy who turned and shot

You're poised and ready, unable to make a sound

Your hands are sweaty if you look down

You're running already when you hit the ground
