My teachers were right
Knowledge is power
I’m losing my grip
On my ivory tower
The years have opened
My treasure of truths
The decades have stolen
What I learned in my youth
My steel trap mind is a rusty old cage
Age has created a sieve from my brain
Facts were like cash safe in a vault
Father time sucks I need him to stop
The old is leaving the new won’t stay
My steel trap mind is a rusty old cage
I knew car engines
Like my friends names
Some Dick changed the parts
Put ‘em in a new place
I tuned carburetors
Computers are there
Control some injector
Mixing fuel with air
My steel trap mind is a rusty old cage
Age has created a sieve from my brain
Facts were like cash safe in a vault
Father time sucks I need him to stop
The old is leaving the new won’t stay
My steel trap mind is a rusty old cage
Still a few gems I’m able to access
Takes a while to educate my guess
My steel trap mind is a rusty old cage
Age has created a sieve from my brain
Facts were like cash safe in a vault
Father time sucks I need him to stop
The old is leaving the new won’t stay
My steel trap mind is a rusty old cage
The old is leaving the new won’t stay
My steel trap mind is a rusty old cage
Really like this, Neil. I think it maybe deserves a better recording of the vocals. You sound far away. I get the feeling there's a warmth to your voice that you're not fully capturing.
I may or may not be an enigma

Yes Gavin, a vocal redo would help I'm sure...my hearing is not perfect and mixing can be a problem...I will have another listen.
I'm happy that generally you like it.
Yes, I do like it, Neil. It's poignant without being maudlin. I like the tune too.
