Bit by Bit Lyrics by Ben Brinton

Pocket Octaves

2020

Swinging high on the monkey bars;
The stars never looked so bright be for
Are you sure, are you sure?

Making friends with my shadows again
Well I’ve never been introduced like this
On concrete blocks
This rocks

She says, “Why do you want to kiss me?”
I say , “Well, cause I think you’re cute.”
Is it not enough? (but if you really really want it.)
Is it not enough? (you should try and play the fool.)

Bit by bit, we let it all whittle away
So what if it’s simple anyway
Doesn’t make it any-less true

She’s moving in. I finally shut-up
... and my friend interrupts

Bit by bit, and littlе by little
Our lips playing tag with who’s It in the middle
It was a bit by bit, and littlе by little
Oh won’t you play the fool
It was a Bit by bit, and little by little
As stunning as the devil, as tempting as an angel
She was a bit by bit and little my little
Oh won’t you play the fool

Back and forth in a verbal touché
But I must say, there’s something more to display
You words tickle my ears like curls
And I fear that there’s no turning back

Significance found in some idle things, ideal dreams
Whiskey wings, flying high above the social scene
I guess, I guess this means, we know too much

Perched and preaching from the trunk of the car
It’s by far much more complex than what others expect
The rhetoric and dialect
Is something more hectic than I can describe
There’s and explosion from ten-thousand years ago
You can feel it when we let go

I’m moving in, she turns away
It’s not that it’s not what she wants
But she wants what it’s not
Not that I’m saying it’s not what it is
I’m moving in, our lips brush ... and we finally touch

Bit by bit, and little by little
Our lips playing tag with who’s It in the middle
It was a bit by bit, and little by little
Oh won’t you play the fool
It was a Bit by bit, and little by little
As stunning as the devil, as tempting as an angel
She was a bit by bit and little my little
Oh won’t you play the fool

Bit by bit, and little by little, Our conversation on a quantum level
It was a bit by bit, and little by little, oh won’t you play the fool
It was a bit by bit, and little by little, I can’t argue enough and I can’t seem to settle
It was a bit by bit, and little by little, oh won’t you let, won’t you please, please play the fool for me
