| First rain of winter
|
| First fall from grace
|
| It’s my first hollow echo
|
| In the halls of praise
|
| How could Samson
|
| I thought he was blind as a bat
|
| How cold he have torn down
|
| The temples like that
|
| And how could little Caesar
|
| How could he know whereof he spoke
|
| When all of his wheels are turning him into a joke
|
| Cause the blind are leading the blind
|
| And I am amazed at how they stumble
|
| Homeward through the haze
|
| Got the soul of a ragpicker
|
| Got the mind of a slug
|
| I keep sweeping problems
|
| Under my rug
|
| And all of my fine
|
| My fine fair weather friends, Yeah
|
| Will have no more time
|
| To make their amends
|
| Cause the blind are leading the blind
|
| And I am amazed at how they stumble
|
| Homeward through the haze
