I was choking on a cornflake You said ?Have some toast instead? I was sleeping maybe three hours You said ?You should get to bed? I was waiting at the church door For the minister to show I was looking at the new year You said ?Walk before you crawl?
I was feeling like a loser You said ?Hey, you?ve still got me? I was feeling pretty lonely You said ?You wanted to be free? I was looking for a good time You said ?Let the good times start? With a quiver of your eyelid You took on someone else?s part
Maybe I?m a little greedy You said ?Think before you speak? Sometimes I?m a little seedy You said ?Everyone is weak? Now I feel a little better Is there something I can do? But I never heard the answer I never had a clue
But what about me I don?t really see How things will improve If all you want is to stay loose
There?s a little echo calling Like a miner trapped inside If I tell her of this moment She will in me doubts confide And she?s on me like a blanket Like a stalk of wilting grass I?m not sure about her motives I?m not sure about her past
But my faith is like a bullet My belief is like a bolt The only thing that lets me sleep at night A little carriage of the soul If it starts a little bleaker Then the year may yet be gold Happiness is not for keeping Happiness is not my goal
But what about me I don?t really see How things will improve If all you want is to stay loose But what about them You play mother hen To a gaggle of gangling youth All you want is to stay loose
I was living through the seconds My composure was a mess I was miles from tenderness It was dark outside, the day it was lying in pieces Everything is flat and dreary I couldn?t care what?s in the news Television is the blues Television is hysterical laughter of people
And I know it could be me I?m always asking for more I keep running round in circles I keep looking for a doorway I?m going to need two lives To follow the paths I?ve been taking
