swallow it

Brandon Flowers

Seek out the light between
Time and confusion glowing up ahead
Instead of slipping through
You bit off more,
Much more than you could chew...

You could not Swallow It
No baby you?re not ready, slow down
And take the time to evolve
You could not Swallow It
No baby you?re not ready, slow down...

We had a lot to learn
Table manners and grace,
How to wait your turn when
Time came to clear your slate
You had too much,
Had too much on your plate...

You could not Swallow It
No baby you?re not ready, slow down
And take the time to evolve
You could not Swallow It
No baby you?re not ready, slow down...

Take your medicine
And crawl before you walk
Think it through before
You open your mouth to talk
Be an advocate of joy
Find your little heart?s desire and...

Follow it
Whoa baby you?re not ready, slow down
And take the time to evolve
You could not Swallow It
No baby you?re not ready, slow down...

(Baby you?re not ready!)

You could not Swallow It
No baby you?re not ready, slow down
And take the time to evolve
You could not Swallow It
No baby you?re not ready, now...

(Slow down!)

No, no, no, no!

Don?t be afraid,
This is your year
It?s gonna be alright,
You?re a performer
Just take your time,
But not too much time...

No, no, no, no!
