Heard About It
©1992 Dakota Sid Clifford


There's things around that leave us each bewildered
No exceptions to the rule
Some obviously ignore, what others clearly choose to notice
When the tallest one is standing on a stool

        If you feel it in your heart you can believe it
        If you see it with your own eyes,
        Believe in half of what you saw
        But if you heard about it
        From someone who heard about it
        You just heard about it, that's all

We likely do what is requested
We tend to mend the squeaky wheel
We blindly try what is repeatedly suggested
And go away convinced we got a deal

        If you feel it in your heart you can believe it
        If you see it with your own eyes,
        Believe in half of what you saw
        But if you heard about it
        From someone who heard about it
        You just heard about it, that's all

Instrumental;

We put our faith in funny places
Trust in "them" to do what's right for "thee"
After all, they'd let us know if there were any danger
And we could all go watch it on T.V.

        If you feel it in your heart you can believe it
        If you see it with your own eyes,
        Believe in half of what you saw
        But if you heard about it
        From someone who heard about it
        You just heard about it, that's all

Repeat verse one
