(Emerson, Lake, Palmer, Sinfield) |
|
Bass - playing in my face - grabbin' the elastic |
|
Drums - listen here she comes - hammerin' the plastic |
|
Keys - I play 'em all with ease - |
|
Freeze! Your shakin' at the knees |
|
You're doin' somethin' drastic - chasin' the fantastic... |
|
To dine with tigers in the sky |
|
But did you ever stop to wonder why? |
|
Man - living in a can - skippin' with a suit-case |
|
Frail - living in a gale - slipping on a blue face |
|
Claws - are scratching at the doors - |
|
Pause: If you don't lose your oars |
|
You're trippin' on a shoe lace - racin' to each new place... |
|
To screw your shadow in the sky |
|
But did you ever stop to wonder why? |
|
Sun - help me when |
|
I run - bleedin' from the moonlight |
|
Nurse - help me with a verse - |
|
I need to sing the tune right |
|
Days - I wasted in the maze - |
|
Raise your eyes above the ways |
|
To keep a silver spoon bright - fly up to balloon height... |
|
To ride the spotlight in the sky |
|
But did you ever stop to wonder why? |
