[00:00:00] Too Many Clues In This Room - Gordon Lightfoot

[00:00:17] The space shuttle ends where the subway begins

[00:00:21] There's a tear on the face of the moon

[00:00:26] From dusk until dawn they have searched all day long

[00:00:29] But there's too many clues in this room

[00:00:34] At best it is said we've been locked deep inside

[00:00:38] Of an old sea man's chest full of charts

[00:00:42] Where maps are contained and what's left of his brains

[00:00:46] When his crew threw his balls to the sharks

[00:00:52] All around the looking glass

[00:00:54] Dancing to a tune

[00:00:57] Sweeping out the house with a fine tooth comb

[00:01:02] Which history's shown

[00:01:05] Leads to ruin

[00:01:11] In a word it is said that at times we must fall

[00:01:16] But the worst of it all was the lies

[00:01:22] We died for the cause just like regular outlaws

[00:01:28] In the dust of an old lawman's eyes

[00:01:34] In times best forgot there was peace there was not

[00:01:39] In her pains mother earth came to bloom

[00:01:45] Her children were born in the eye of the storm

[00:01:50] And there's too many clues in this room

[00:02:16] The power that is stored in this no man's land of chance

[00:02:21] Is the someone who knows what they're doing'

[00:02:28] The old soldiers say in their own crusty way

[00:02:33] We've got too many troops in this room

[00:02:39] All around the looking glass

[00:02:41] Dancing to a tune

[00:02:44] Sweeping out the house with a fine tooth comb

[00:02:49] Which history's shown

[00:02:52] Leads to ruin

[00:02:58] The space shuttle ends where the subway begins

[00:03:04] Praise the lord there's a train leavin' soon

[00:03:10] From dusk until dawn they have searched all day long

[00:03:15] But there's too many clues in this room
