Under the Green Desk Lamp…
Today we have another song/ poem from the intellectual property vaults of Brad OH Inc. For your enjoyment, we present the lost ‘Basic Human Indecency’ song: ‘Town of Truth’.
In the city with no lies
Things are not the same
Love is very rare there
There’s no such thing as blame
There are many ideas
And each one has a name
They name them for a dreamer
A man that’s not quite sane
In the city with no faith
There is no metaphor
They keep their eyes upon the ground
And guard dogs at their door
They know just where they came from
And where they’ll go forever more
Their science killed their magic
And life is such a bore
In the city with no soul
Each man is his own slave
He walks his path all by himself
Up to his lonely grave
Their medicine will cure a man
That he could never save
It can bypass the dreamer’s heart
Of which he only gave
But in the Town of truth
The eyes follow the mind
Dreams blossom to vision
Men smile and are kind
Yes the city may be ugly
But the town-folks they are blind…
