Two Bare Hands, Lyrics

Does anyone have or know the lyrics for Two Bare Hands? Cool song but a lot of the lyrics are impossible for me to understand. I’d enjoy it more if I knew what he was saying. :thinking:

I have absolutely no idea of the lyrics, apart from the ‘thanks very much’ at the end… I haven’t actually listened to it enough, yet… :wink:

Here you go:

Two Bare Hands

This song is by Jubilee Riots and appears on the album Penny Black (2014) .

We’re so grateful
For the ones we rely on
Who lean back upon us
They seem so strong
But a time comes
When there’s no one around you
You do all you can do
With your brain and your brawn
Have an eye, have an eye, have an eye
Better watch where you’re going
Look alive, look alive, look alive, oh!

You will find that sometimes all you have is
Your beating heart and your two bare hands
You will find that sometimes all you have is
Your beating heart and your two bare hands
Your beating heart and your two bare hands

It’s a fine line
Between comfort and callous
We’re finding our balance
In this tightrope life
You’ve got good friends who would do
Anything for you
But you may be calling
When their hands are tied

You will find that sometimes all you have is
Your beating heart and your two bare hands
You will find that sometimes all you have is
Your beating heart and your two bare hands
Your beating heart and your two bare hands

Well I hope
The words come when I sing
Because I’ve seen
The bright lights flicker, fade and swing
Yeah I’ve been lucky, my life’s been sweet
But it’s a stone’s throw from my bed to the street

You will find that sometimes all you have is
Your beating heart and your two bare hands
You will find that sometimes all you have is
Your beating heart and your two bare hands
Your beating heart and your two bare hands

Love this line:

Yeah I’ve been lucky, my life’s been sweet
But it’s a stone’s throw from my bed to the street
