Well, you can ride on the crest of a wave |
|
If that's where you want to be |
|
But does the look on your face |
|
Mean you're really feeling happy? |
|
Or do you feel like you're standing on a wooden leg |
|
Or a poor man much too proud to beg |
|
Or a page from a book that can't be read at all? |
|
You gotta see by the way |
|
That they are talking |
|
That it's time for you |
|
To pick up your grip start walking' |
|
Cause they want to see your long legs flying |
|
Go to the place where the earth meets the sky and |
|
Don't stop to turn around and wave goodbye at all |
|
They won't be satisfied |
|
Till you're out of their sight |
|
But I wonder how will you feel |
|
With a deck of cards |
|
You're not around to deal |
|
You're not around to deal |
|
They won't be satisfied |
|
Till you're out of their sight |
|
But I wonder how will you feel |
|
With a deck of cards |
|
You're not around to deal? |
|
You're not around to deal |
|
Well, they say it's a lie, a joke |
|
That you are living |
|
But you know one thing they don't |
|
You won't give in' |
|
Cause you're like a cat, chasin' its tail |
|
Makes a million circles but you're gonna fail |
|
Look down you just don't understand |
|
Well, you can ride on the crest of a wave |
|
If that's where you want to be |
|
But does the look on your face |
|
Mean you're really feeling happy? |
|
Well, do you feel like you're standing on a wooden leg |
|
A poor man much too proud to beg |
|
Or a page from a book that can't be read at all? |
