I never was the things I said I was But it's not as if I lied What I was, all I was Was the effort to describe The effort to describe Now, I may not have been born to deliver the truth But I sure do love to ride the route When I’m on my bicycle I am a seagull Made of man and metal And I am flying, flying Let the blind call me dark Let the weak call me peak-ridden Let the butchers grind our hearts And claim there's no love within But you can call me anything Just as long as I can sing Yeah, you can call me anything Just as long as I can sing I sing for answers I sing for good listeners And tired dancers
