Every Word You Say (Is Written Down) - Peter Sarstedt

To learn from in school

Written for the children

To learn from their fathers

Every word you say is a written down

Every word you say is a written down

Everyone you meet

Is an innocent, somewhere

Oh everyone you meet

Is an innocent

Careful what you say to the child

Who’s emerging

Careful what you say to the child

In your anger

Every word you say is written down

Every word you say is a written down

Every word you say is carved in flesh and blood

Every word you say is carved in bone

Say it to the sky

Say it to the misty mountain

Say it to the east

Say it to the westward wind

Every word you say is written down

Oh every word you say is a written down

Every word you learn

Is a space filled up, inside

Yeah every word you learn

Is a space filled up

Spoken by the man

Who think that words the answer

Spoken by the sick

Who place their trust in status

Every word you say is a vanity

Every word you say is a vanity

Oh every word you say is a written down.

somewhere

Oh every word you say is a written down

Written for the children

To learn from in school

Written for the children

To learn from their fathers

Every word you say is a written down

I said every word you say is a written down

Oh every word you say is a written down

Every word you say is a written down

Every word you say is a written down
