Put the Spoon Down, Boy

Put the Spoon Down Boy

Words & Music by Chapman James

You wanna play the quintessential victim?

You’re so entitled to the shame ….

Everyday you need another rescue

Everyday there’s someone new to blame

Chorus:

Put the spoon down boy…

The silver spoon down boy…

Put the spoon down boy…

And you’ll be fine

You wanna run from all your consequences?

You wanna freeze when problems come to call?

Go on and fight the flow of all your karma

Down every waterfall

Chorus:

Bridge: Life can feel so over-rated

Love can sound so out of tune

Hope can seem a little cliché

When you’re starin’ at the spoon

Knowledge doesn’t always lead to wisdom

When you know a lot of things that just aren’t so

How about ‘Appreciate the Moment’?

And ‘Holding On’ by ‘Letting Go’!

Chorus:
