Idle Hands
Nervous fingers, poison ink
Faceless snipers in the stands
Idle hands, idle hands
Pen is envy, vain and soft
Overloaded, undermanned
Idle hands, idle hands
Their watches run backwards
They miss every sign
But they always deliver
They're paid by the line
They've all seen the future
They'll rant and they'll rave
But they're always riding the crest of the wave
Nest of vipers spit venom on command
Skins shed in shadow, heads in the sand
Idle hands, idle hands
See the mighty brought down by the meek
Those who can do, those who can't critique
Idle hands, idle hands
