Over your shoulder, please don't mind me

If my eyes have fallen onto your magazine

Oh, I've been watching and wondering

Why your face is changing with every line you read

For all those lines and circles to me a mystery

Eve pulled down the apple and gave a taste to me

If she could it would be wonderful

But my pride is in the way

I cannot read to save my life

I'm so ashamed to say

I live in silence, afraid to speak

Of my life of darkness because I cannot read

For all those lines and circles to me a mystery

Eve pulled down the apple and gave a taste to me

If she could it would be wonderful

Then I wouldn't need someone elses eyes

To see whats in front of me

No one guiding me

It makes me humble to be so green

At what every kid can do when he learns A to Z

For all those lines and circles just frighten me

And I fear that Ill be trampled if you don't reach for me

Before I run Ill have to take a fall

And when I pick myself up so slowly

Ill devour every one of those

Books in the tower of knowledge
