Sometimes I can’t help the feeling that I’m
Living a life of illusion
And oh, why can’t we let it be
And see thru the hole in this wall of confusion
I just can’t help the feeling I’m
Living a life of illusion
Pow, right between the eyes
Oh, how nature loves her little surprises
Wow, it all seems so logical now
It’s just one of her better disguises
And it comes with no warning
Nature loves her little surprises
Continual crisis
Hey, don’t you know it’s a waste of your day
Caught up in endless solutions
That have no meaning, just another hunch
Based upon jumping conclusions
Caught up in endless solutions
Backed up against a wall of confusion
Living a life of illusion
Takin’ my time
Choosin’ my lines
Try’n’ to decide what to do
Looks like my stop
Don’t wanna get off
Got myself hung up on you
Seems to me
You don’t wanna talk about it
Seems to me
You just turn your pretty head and walk away
Places I’ve known
Things that I’m growin’
Don’t taste the same without you
I got my self in
The worst mess I’ve been
And I find myself starvin’ without you
Seems to me
Talk all night here comes the mornin’
Seems to me
You just forget what we said and greet the day
I’ve got to cool myself down
Stompin’ around
Thinkin’ some words I can’t name ya
Meet you half way
Got nothing to say
Still I don’t s’ppose I can blame ya
Seems to me
You don’t wanna talk about it
Seems to me
You just turn your pretty head and walk away
They say it’s gonna get cloudy and storm
And then the weather is fine
And they say it’s gonna be partly sunny and warm
And partly cloudy half of the time
And there’s all of these rules
Based on all these predictions
Makes it so hard to define
Where do you draw the line?
Seems like fifty percent’s about the best you can do
Based on latest projections
Oh, ’cause there’s all these laws — all these rules
But then again there’s always exceptions —
To the rules
Amidst all this confusion
Where do you draw the line
Half of the time you are right
You are wrong — half of the time
You are off — you are on
Half of the time you are here right now
Half of the time you are gone —
Half of the time
Cause it never ends
It all depends on
Where you draw the line
When half of the time you are right
You are wrong — half of the time
You are weak — you are strong
Half of the time you’re alone
Half of the time you belong
Half of the time you are here right now
Half of the time you are gone —
Half of the time
Have you ever seen yourself on TV?
Well I have
Have you ever been more famous than me?
Well I have
Have you ever been stung by a bee?
Well I have
Have you ever met Muhammad Ali?
I have, I have
Have you ever had a case of the flu?
Well I have
Have you ever had to escape from a zoo?
I have
Have you ever met the guys in The Who?
Well I have
I’m in Who’s Who, are you?
I am
Have you ever stood in line at the bank?
Had an uncle named Frank?
Have you ever rode around in a tank?
I have
But I’ve never been to Fairbanks Alaska
That’s the only place I’ve never been
Have you ever been everywhere else?
I have, I have
Have you ever locked your keys in your car?
Well I have
Have you ever been thrown out of a bar?
I have
But I’ve never shot 18 under par
And I still don’t know where all those balls are
Except the one that went in some doctor’s car
One time in Lincoln Nebraska
And some day I’m going to Fairbanks Alaska
If it’s the last thing I ever do
Have you ever done everything else?
I have too, I have!
