[00:16.33]Have you ever?
[00:19.01]Ever had to stand and just watch
[00:22.57]While your life was like a game on your X-Box?
[00:27.08]Welcome to the club, I’m the president (incumbent)
[00:31.16]We’re almost like a nation of fools
[00:35.14]Where public spending’s cut down to naught
[00:39.25]We’re clutching at invisible straws
[00:43.58]And no one’s here to tell where they lead to, who's to tell us who’s in
[00:49.30]Control
[00:52.26]I’m not in control
[00:55.73]I seem to be but no (no control)
[00:59.86]Our lives are a river where we
[01:02.32]are swimming frantically,
[01:04.09]Belly-up just trying to obtain
[01:05.70]Control
[01:07.78]We fail to take control
[01:11.80]Fail to swim ashore
[01:15.75]It’s all up in the air and I’d
[01:18.27]much rather go down river
[01:20.51]than go down like a lead balloon
[01:24.28]The bottom’s never the place to be
[01:28.16]Why not surf on the surface with me
[01:32.03]It’s easy and won’t ruin your make-up (wake up)
[01:36.17]Don’t bother with the deep end anymore
[01:40.29]I got happiness served on a plate for you
[01:44.02]That old bliss on a table for two
[01:48.50]And nothing in the water to weigh you down, just throw out all your
[01:54.39]Control
[01:57.20]I’m not in control
[02:00.77]I seem to be but no (no control)
[02:04.79]Our lives are a river where we
[02:07.50]are swimming frantically,
[02:09.46]Belly-up just trying to obtain
[02:10.86]Control
[02:13.17]We fail to take control
[02:17.07]Fail to swim ashore
[02:21.07]It’s all up in the air and I’d
[02:23.79]much rather go down river
[02:25.82]than go down like a lead balloon
[02:28.33]I never claimed the answer
[02:31.95]But I know what it’s not
[02:35.92]Let go and let in a little
[02:40.19]Modulation to lift you up
[02:46.91]I’m not in control
[02:50.62]I seem to be but no (no control)
[02:54.58]Our lives are a river where we
[02:57.06]are swimming frantically,
[02:59.22]Belly-up just trying to obtain
[03:00.82]Control
[03:02.78]We fail to take control
[03:06.91]Fail to swim ashore
[03:10.99]It’s all up in the air and I’d
[03:13.40]much rather go down river
[03:15.56]than go down like a lead balloon
