[Verse 1]
There's a blind man in the desert
They drank the sand like water
They said, so it is, it is, so they said
The blind man didn't 'cause he couldn't understand
He understood what he didn't understand
He only understood because he couldn't understand
He wouldn't understand, so he wouldn't eat sand

[Refrain]
Sick men sip sand
Sick men sip sand
Sick men sip sand
Sick men sip sand

[Verse 2]
But could he see his folly
The blind's not fooled so easily
He was free
They were not
Never saw what he saw
The blind man left when he saw their fault
He couldn't be wrong, so he wouldn't last long

[Refrain]
Sick men sip sand
Sick men sip sand
Sick men sip sand
Sick men sip sand
[Instrumental Bridge]

[Outro]
How do you do it?
How do you do it?
How do you do it?
How do you do it?
How?
How?
How?
How?
