Etch-a-sketch Lyrics - Singles - Tinman Jones

Black lines on grey 

Put on display 

Within this plastic red frame 

Abstract at best 

My soul will testify that I am not sane 

I turn the knobs to the left to the right 

Try to draw myself out of this crazy life 

But then I gave control of the picture 

Over to the one who makes the art richer 

Turn me over, Shake me 

Clean me up when you shake me down today 

Turn me over, Shake me 

Don't wanna deny a shakedown for a clean slate 

I promise I 

I need better eyes 

To see my good intentions 

I realize 

That my disguise 

Is only my invention 

I turn the knobs to the left to the right 

Try to draw myself out of this crazy life 

But then I gave control fo the picture 

Over to the one who makes the art richer 

Turn me over, Shake me. 

Clean me up when you shake me down today 

Turn me over, Shake me 

In my life, I have made a mess 

Take me in your hands 

I'm your etch-a-sketch
