Well, you snap to attention and pay heed to what they say' |
|
Cos you know that you please them all that way |
|
And you don't need to think now 'cos your mind has gone astray |
|
And they'll do your thinking anyway |
|
And your head is full of ideas that don't mean a thing |
|
With your new sense of duty and your brain washed shiny clean |
|
It's time to take your part in the parade |
|
Yet you sound like your father and |
|
I don't want to be mean |
|
But did you never want to break away |
|
And your head is full of answers with no questioning |
|
And your life is very simple you won't let the outside in |
|
Won't you tell me, why won't you get a life? |
|
Are you scared of what feels right? |
|
Won't you help me, reach the meaning of you |
|
Well, it's hard for me to understand how this could be |
|
You're the same age as me, yet you're older by years |
|
Well, you snap to attention and pay heed to what they say' |
|
Cos you know that you please them all that way |
|
So I won't try to change you, you can carry on that way |
|
But I hope you come back to life one day |
|
And your head is full of ideas that don't mean a thing |
|
And your life is very simple you won't let the outside in |
|
Won't you tell me, why won't you get a life? |
|
Are you scared of what feels right? |
|
Won't you help me, reach the meaning of you |
