The Palm of Your Hand Songtext
von Jim Lindberg

Left-sided Sal, he was a hell of a guy
Pick-pocket your wallet in the blink of an eye
He′ll steal all your cash soon as you turn your back
You won't feel it
He never had nothing since he was just a kid
Never had a bike or pot to piss in
So he started to steal to have something that′s real
You can't blame him

He bottles it up
Yeah, he holds it all in
You got let that ego drop

I said whoa oh
Let your feelings show
You got the answer in the palm of your hand
You can't understand you won′t see it

I said whoa oh
Let your feelings show
You got the answer in the palm of your hand
You can′t understand you won't see it


Wall-eyed sally was a heck of gal
She′s lookin' at you but you never could tell
Soon as you turn you back
She′ll chat up your man you won't see it
Her mom worked the streets since she was just a kid
She′s never known love unless some cash came with it
So numb she can't feel
Just wants something that's real
You can′t blame her

She bottles it up
Yeah, she holds it all in
You got let that ego drop

I said whoa oh
Let your feelings show
You got the answer in the palm of your hand
You can′t understand you won't see it

So just say what′s on your mind
It doesn't matter if the words don′t come out right
When your back's against the wall you don′t know where to begin
Just let it all out
Yeah, stop holding it in
Don't let life pass you by before you realize
You won't see it

You bottle it up
You hold it all in
You got let that ego drop


I said whoa oh
Let your feelings show
You got the answer in the palm of your hand
You can′t understand you won′t see it

I said whoa oh
Let your feelings show
You got the answer in the palm of your hand
You can't understand you can′t see it
You can't see it
You can′t see it
You can't see it
