Thanks for the information
|
Never give a sucker an even break
|
When he's breaking through
|
To a new level of consciousness
|
There always seems to be more
|
Obstacles in the way
|
Thanks for the information I know
|
It's only a combat zone
|
Thanks for the memory,
|
I'll just have
|
To carry on on my own
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
And it's wonderful and it's marvelous
|
How we can ever make it through
|
Sometimes I wonder how we can ever
|
Make it from day to day
|
|
Thanks for the information
|
What you gain on the hobby horse you lose on the swing
|
I like mine over easy
|
And you can have your's sunny side up
|
I don't wanna quibble over insignificant details
|
And I've tried every trick in the book
|
Thanks for the information
|
I know I should look before I leap
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
And it's wonderful and It's marvelous
|
How we can ever make it through
|
Sometimes I wonder how
|
We can ever make it at all
|
|
Thanks for the information
|
Never give a sucker an even break
|
And with her everything light becomes heavy
|
And everything heavy becomes light
|
They took me down to the watering hole
|
Because I happened to mention I was dying of thirst
|
Then they told me he who believes first will be later
|
And he who believes later will be first
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Thanks for the information
|
Oh never give a sucker an even break
|
When you're on to something it's a
|
Dime in a dozen people start
|
Coming out of the woodwork
|
Thanks for the invitation
|
I know I must be on to something big
|
Everytime I take two steps forward
|
I end up having to take three back
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Thanks for the information
|
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
|
Every time I'm ready for a major breakthrough
|
I always have to think in terms of better of worse
|
Thanks for the information
|
Thanks for the memory
|
