dave steel - clear as mud lyrics

the door just hangs there on a rusty piece of leather
that the rats are slowly eating away
you can hear the kettle whistling on the fire in the kitchen
means that jack ain’t too far away
down in town they’re building bridges
he’s up there digging ditches
sleeping like a baby despite his age
and the aches in his bones don’t show in his face
he reckons human beings weren’t built to last, anyway

he says the weathеr’s getting worse as the yеars go by
the garden’s getting out of control
the young blokes on the weekends annoy him a bit
the dog’s too old to chase them back home
they ride their trail bikes past the back door
and up across the ridges
he says that the young have their own ways
but it’s quiet in the winter when the bees ain’t working
he reckons he hibernates most of the time, anyway

he says that it’s as plain as dirt
and it’s as clear as mud
you can’t cross the river when the river’s in flood
you can’t make a silk purse from a sow’s ear
you can’t breathe in the city boy, ain’t no air down there…
so come in by the back door, sit down by the fire
get yourself in out of the cold
i’ve been up here sixty years next summer
i’ve outlived two of my own
i don’t understand but i don’t get angry
while the rain still falls and the moon still rises
i just sit here and wonder at the sound of the thunder
and think of how quickly all those years went by
(it’s amazing…)
