I see you kiss her on the cheek ev'rytime she gives a speech
he not busy being born, Is busy dying
I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours
I got troubles, I think maybe you got troubles,;
I think maybe we'd better leave each other alone.
Roses are red, violets are blue;
And time is beginning to crawl
Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more
I must be guilty of something,;
You just whisper it into my ear.
When my life is over, it'll be like a puff of smoke
Just like you I'm wondrin' what I'm doin' here.;
Just like you I'm wondrin' what's goin' on.
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand;
In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.
Saw you drift into infinity and come back again
I can tell you fancy, I can tell you plain;
You give something up for everything you gain
I don't mind a reasonable amount of trouble
If you want somebody you can trust, trust yourself.
People on the platforms;
Waiting for the trains;
I can hear their hearts a-beatin';
Like pendulums swinging on chains
All the laughter is just making me sad
Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time
Try to be pure at heart, they arrest you for robbery,;
Mistake your shyness for aloofness, your shyness for snobbery
I still believe she was my twin, but I lost the ring.
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
I don't wanna be hers, I wanna be yours.
Now, I can't go back to what was, baby,;
I can't unring the bell.
I been to Sugar Town, I shook the sugar down
For I know that you know that I know that you know;
Something is tearing up your mind.
Everybody must get stoned.
I can smile in the face of mankind.;
Don't even remember what her lips felt like on mine;
Most of the time.
Because something is happening here;
But you don't know what it is;
Do you, Mister Jones?
All right, I'll take a chance, I will fall in love with you
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite.
