Yanny & Laurel

(album: SOS - 2019)

The prophet says the end is near
Still we're grateful summer's here
Eighty percent are idiots
Is that positive or hideous?

Got friends on every continent
The future's bright, I'm confident, yeah
You see the world is questioning
And my arrogance [?]

Watch the mad man in the car
See the drunk guy in the bar
Blame him for the planet's decline
But hey that could be me or you
Something that we both would do
At time when our stars don't align

She saw some gypsies on the tram
How they will ride it up and down
Although it was subliminal
She saw their life as criminal

Well, it was me and some Belfast kids
For what's not doing God forbids, yeah
We were heading to grandpa's grave
As I recall, I think we did behave

Once or twice I've done a crime
Mostly it's been a waste of time
Never with a sinister aim
There are two sides of the coin
Two sides that will never join
Even though they both are same

Like Yanny and Laurel
Like Yanny and Laurel
Like Yanny and Laurel
Like Yanny and Laurel

Once or twice I've done a crime
Mostly it's been a waste of time
Never with a sinister aim
There are two sides of the coin
Two sides that will never join
Even though they both are same

Like Yanny and Laurel
We see life differently
Like Yanny and Laurel
The world's got its symmetry
Like Yanny and Laurel
Not by opinion or moral
Like Yanny and Laurel
But by the planet's rational
Like Yanny and Laurel
Like Yanny and Laurel
Like Yanny and Laurel
Like Yanny and Laurel
