Rabbit Ears was written in 2008 for one of my beautiful daughters, Eve, when she was 9. I think as a band we really hit our stride here.
Rabbit Ears
Listen up my darling Don’t you listen to their jeers Everyone inside that crowd Knows that you have rabbit ears They’ll want to sway you to their side And if you won’t go then they’ll taunt you darling Why? Put up your antenna for that kind? Tune yourself to somewhere else inside It’s time to find Just how beautiful you are Beautiful you are on your own You say the bully in the playground Has caught you off your guard And he towers over you At the bottom of the slide Yeah he’ll want to steal your change But let him be denied my darling Why? Put up your antenna for that kind? Tune yourself to somewhere else inside It’s time to find Just how beautiful you are Beautiful you are on your baby Why? (Why time?) Put up your antenna for that kind? (Your time) Tune yourself to somewhere else inside It’s time to find Just how beautiful you are Beautiful you are on your own
