My mind was a timebomb
|
That was set to explode
|
So I packed up my cares
|
Into the sunset I rode
|
A path to hell that's paved
|
With good intentions.
|
|
Well I guess you and I
|
Will never see eye to eye
|
But if there's one thing I'll be
|
Glad to know when I die
|
It's that I never entertained your
|
'Can't Conventions.'
|
|
Two men gaze from behind
|
Their prison bars
|
One man sees dirt
|
The other sees stars
|
|
I'm just thinking aloud
|
Isn't thinking allowed?
|
|
Just let your mind wander
|
It may never come back
|
Set off on a new train of thought
|
On life's track.
|
|
I'm just thinking aloud
|
Isn't thinking allowed?
|
Why is nobody thinking?
|
|
How can you call me a failure
|
Or a social defective
|
When to find your own mind
|
You'd need a private detective?
|
I'm not a statistic or
|
A regular family man.
|
|
I don't give a damn about public relations
|
I'll never live up to
|
Your great expectations
|
You can take or leave me
|
Just the way I am.
|
|
Your straight jacket emotions
|
Only stifle and kill
|
The spirit within us all
|
I call free will.
|
|
I'm just thinking aloud
|
Isn't thinking allowed?
|
|
Two men gaze from behind
|
Their prison bars
|
One man sees dirt
|
The other sees stars.
|
|
I'm just thinking aloud
|
Isn't thinking allowed?
