No Telling When Lyrics - Singles - Mutton Birds

(Don McGlashan) 

Are these the hands of a man? I suppose so 

I recall them shaking the hands of other men 

Now all they seem to do is write in this log book 

That's all they've done since I can't remember when 

And there's 

No telling when 

I'm going to be 

Carried in 

But in my mind 

I see the land 

There's a footprint in the sand, 

and it's going to be... 

Mine...It's going to be 

Mine...It's going to be mine 

Is this a human face in the mirror? 

It looks just like a piece of the sea 

I've been staring at the waves so very long now 

My eyes are playing tricks on me 

And there's 

No telling when 

I'm going to be 

Carried in 

But in my mind 

I see the land 

There's a footprint in the sand, 

and it's going to be... 

Mine...It's going to be 

Mine...It's going to be mine 

I had a friend who said "Don't read these papers, 

The writing inside is always so small" 

But in the end it was him who started shrinking 

In the end you couldn't see him at all 

And there's 

No telling when 

I'm going to be 

Carried in 

But in my mind 

I see the land 

There's a footprint in the sand, 

and it's going to be... 

Mine...It's going to be 

Mine...It's going to be mine
