Like A Rock - Dave's True Story, Kelly Flint, David Cantor

The green glow of the clock

Reads half-past four

You creep along on cat’s paw

As you cross the bedroom floor

I hear you breathe

I hear the closet door

And catch wind of a fragrance

That I never knew you wore

But I won’t say a word

I won’t say a word

I won’t say a word

I’ll just lie there

…Like a rock

We play this game

Each time you come home late

You fumble in the dark

Until I finally take the bait

Well do the things you must

But I won’t bite

You’ve worn me down completely

I refuse to fight this fight

So I won’t say a word

I won’t say a word

I won’t say a word

I’ll just lie there

…Like a rock

A rock need not be subtle

A rock need not be dull

A rock makes its rebuttal

Upon impact with the skull

So come to bed now darling

I think it’s for the best

'Cause I’ll be quick to wager

You could really use the rest

Take up all the covers

I won’t kick or scream

Smile your little smile

Dream you little dreams

And I won’t say a word

I won’t say a word

I won’t say a word

As you lie there

…Like a rock

No I won’t say a word

I won’t say a word

I won’t say a word

I’ll just lie there

…Like a rock

…Like a rock

…Like a rock
