If you rely on what your senses tell you
|
You'll be let down, 'cause
|
Sometimes they deceive you
|
I sensed that you cared about me
|
But it was hallucinatory
|
I was in a euphoric state
|
What a mistake
|
|
CHORUS
|
Love is senseless as any other sense
|
It's a dangerous missile from which
|
There's no defense
|
You can't understand it 'cause you don't have the mind
|
You're better off uncombined
|
|
Than combined with a friend who betrays your frail trust
|
Combined with a love who soon becomes to someone else's lust
|
Combined with a priest who doesn't know what he believes
|
Stay uncombined 'lest you be stuck with one of these
|
|
You can rely on someone else's judgement
|
But that's not that wise 'cause
|
We've all got our own eyes
|
I judged that your innocence
|
Was your best form of defense
|
Then I found out the judge was on the take
|
What a mistake
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
Than combined with a teacher who resents you 'cause your young
|
Combined with a parent who resents you 'cause you have fun
|
Combined with a girl who's always got what she wants
|
Combined with a boy who hasn't yet--stay away from these
|
|
Who will betray you, you wouldn't pay you
|
To be yourself
|
And when they lay in fields to retire you
|
Who will take of their help? (I think these lines are wrong. --W.)
|
|
I can't relate just how unimportant
|
All the important things are
|
'Cause when your heart is open
|
It closes with a scar
|
I know that you can hear me
|
And you don't like what I'm saying
|
There's no trusting just for trusting's sake
|
What a mistake
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
Than combined with a leader who never takes a stand
|
Combined with a dream when no one else gives a damn
|
Combined with a lifestyle that soon makes you its slave
|
Combined with anything at all
|
Combined with a child that always must come first
|
Combined with a cure that just makes the sickness worse
|
Combined with a wife who you can never please
|
Stay uncombined lest you be stuck with one of these
|
|
You can maintain your defensive shelter
|
But it will be smashed down
|
To helter skelter
|
