Hear a Lot, Say a Lot
I hear a lot
And I say a lot
Few ever look for me
And even fewer ever hear me
I hide in plain sight
Whether its day or night
To help is all I want
But most like to bend me
And as if they had a wand
Never again shall anyone find me
They do this to control
Without realizing the high price of a soul
But when I’m least expected
They’d rather be protected
For there shall be no place to hide
What am I?
The truth.
So Simple I Only Point
I’m so simple I only point,
Yet I guide people all over the world.
What am I?
A compass.
Celebrate, Hide Their Shame or Commit Crime
Some use me to celebrate,
Others use me to hide their shame,
Others use me to commit crime.
What am I?
Alcohol. People have a drink to celebrate, but also drink to hide their shame. Lastly, drunk driving is a crime.
A mask is also a valid answer. They can be used to celebrate Halloween or at dress-up parties, a mask can hide your shame and masks are used by thieves.
Update: This one has more valid answers than I thought. Money, drugs and night also work.
What Has Hair and Leaks?
What has hair and leaks when something bad happens?
Your eye. Your eyelashes are the hair and when something bad happens, your cry.
Has Teeth But Can’t Bite
What has teeth but can’t bite?
A comb. Other inanimate objects with teeth like a saw, zipper or a gear can “bite” you. Many people can affirm from painful experience in regards to zippers and saws, and the unfortunate factory worker who is missing a finger can attest to gears. It’s a rare event that anyone would be injured by a comb.
Another grim option is a dead animal or person.
Four Legs and a Foot
What has four legs and a foot, but can’t walk
And a head but can’t talk?
A bed. The foot of the bed can’t walk and the head of the bed can’t talk. It’s probably a good thing that beds can’t walk and talk. Just think of where they’d go and what they’d say…
Look In My Face
Look in my face and I am someone,
Look in my back I am no one.
What am I?
A mirror. The face of a mirror shows your face, but the back of a mirror shows nothing but dust and cardboard (depending on the type of mirror).
The Densest of My Clan
You ride on me every day but barely notice,
I’m hot and cold at the very same time,
I’m the densest of my clan,
And my first three help you enjoy music.
What am I?
Earth. Most people don’t stop to think that they’re hurtling through space on a huge planet. At any given time the Earth has burning hot magma and freezing arctics at the same time. The Earth is the densest planet and the first three letters, “ear” help you listen to music.
Whoever Makes Me Can Hear Me
Whoever makes me can hear me, but to all others I’m silent. What am I?
A thought in your head. You can hear it, but no one else can. Unless you read minds, but then you’d have bigger problems, like figuring how how to remain sane in large crowds.
