Long Road Out Of Eden - Eagles lyrics

Frail Grasp On The Big Picture
Eagles Song Lyrics

Artist: Eagles
Album: Long Road Out Of Eden (2007)

Well, ain't it a shame
That our short little memory
Never seem to learn
The lessons of history.

We keep makin' the same mistakes
Over and over and over and over again
And then we wonder why
We're in the shape we're in.

Good ol' boys down at the bar
Peanuts and politics
They think they know it all
They don't know much of nothing.

Even if one of them was to read a newspaper
Cover-to-cover
That ain't what's going on
Journalism's dead and gone.

Frail grasp on the big picture
Light fading and the fog is getting thicker
It's a frail grasp on the big picture
Dark ages.

You my love-drunk friend
All that red wine and candlelight
Soulful conversations
That go on until the dawn.

How many times can you tell your story?
How many hangovers can you endure
Just to get some snogging done?

You're living in a hormone dream
You don't have the slightest notion
What long-term love is all about.

All your romantic liaisons
Don't deal with eternal questions like
Who left the cap off the freaking toothpaste?
Whose turn to take the garbage out?

Frail grasp on the big picture
You keep on rubbin' that, you're gonna get a blister
It's a frail grasp on the big picture
I've seen it all before.

And we pray to our lord
Who, we know, is american
He reigns from on high
He speaks to us through middlemen.

And he shepherds his flock
We sing out and we praise his name
He supports us in war
He presides over football games.

And the right will prevail
All our troubles shall be resolved
We hold faith above all
Unless there's money or sex involved.

Frail grasp on the big picture
Nobody's calling them for roughing up the kicker
It's a frail grasp on the big picture
Heaven help us.

Frail grasp on the big picture
All waiting for that miracle elixir
Frail grasp on the big picture
I don't wonder anymore.

Frail grasp on the big picture
Somebody says, 'you brought her here
So go ahead and kiss her.'

Frail grasp on the big picture.

Frail grasp on the big picture
Light fading and the fog is getting thicker
It's a frail grasp on the big picture.

Frail grasp on the big picture
Frail grasp on the big picture.
