Pulling Lame
Unveiling Life's Twists: Pulling Lame by Spirit of the West
Lyrics
You put the dumbest things
You prioritize trivial matters
In the strangest places
In unusual or inappropriate locations
Behind the door, on the floor
In concealed places, disregarding them
A cabinet full of empty faces
A collection of insincere or shallow individuals
Let's give it a miss this time
Suggesting skipping or avoiding something this time
Give it a miss this time
Reiterating the suggestion to skip or avoid
Is there a problem here
Questioning if there is a problem
Running through the ranks
A problem running through the hierarchy or ranks
Loss of faith, loss of face
Losing trust and losing reputation
Captain will you walk the plank?
Asking if the leader is willing to take responsibility or face consequences
Let's give him a push this time
Suggesting forcefully pushing someone this time
Give him a push this time
Reiterating the suggestion to push someone
And it's hard to care who's clinging to the reins
Indicating indifference to who is in control
When the horse keeps pulling lame
Expressing difficulty in caring when faced with repeated problems
And it's hard to care who's clinging to the reins
Repeating the sentiment of difficulty in caring
When the horse keeps pulling lame
Emphasizing the recurring issue of the horse pulling lame
Pulling lame, pulling lame
Repeating the phrase "pulling lame" to highlight the ongoing problem
Pulling lame, pulling lame
-Pulling lame
-Pulling figures from your sleeve
Metaphorically extracting information or resources with deceit
Slight of hand
Deceptive or skillful manipulation of facts
Twist of fact
Manipulation of truth for a final request or act
One last request, a final trick
Suggesting a final, possibly dramatic, action
Let's see the disappearing act
Referring to a disappearing act, possibly an escape or avoidance
Let's give him a miss this time
Suggesting avoiding someone or something this time
Give him a miss this time
Reiterating the suggestion to avoid
And it's hard to care who's clinging to the reins
Reiterating indifference to those in control
When the horse keeps pulling lame
Expressing difficulty in caring due to the recurring issue
And it's hard to care who's clinging to the reins
Repeating the sentiment of difficulty in caring
When the horse keeps pulling lame
Emphasizing the persistent problem of the horse pulling lame
Pulling lame, pulling lame
Repeating the phrase "pulling lame" to emphasize the ongoing issue
Pulling lame, pulling lame
-Well, you're pulling lame
-You're pulling lame
Repeating the assertion that someone is pulling lame
You're pulling lame
-You're pulling lame
-All the king's people

Jumping ship while he jumps rope
