The Mountain |
| Love it or leave it |
| The choices are few |
| Where is the magic? |
| (wave your wand 'til your dreams come true) |
| I’m high on illusion |
| Like a fool who is truly in love |
| Whose act of suspension |
| Only proves there are wires above |
| Now you can see the ways things are |
| You can’t pretend you’re blind |
| Without a change of mind |
| You can’t have a change of heart |
| Give me a reason |
| Or give me a rhyme |
| One man’s high treason |
| Is another’s victimless crime |
| We say we want justice |
| To blind and binding on all |
| But nobody wants it (to be) |
| On their heads where the sword must fall |
| Why is everybody laughing at me? |
| Why is everybody happy but me? |
| I wait for a mountain |
| That won’t ever come |
| I feel just like Mohammed |
| (and perhaps a little bit dumb) |
| Others go climb it- |
| Ask them why, they reply «'cause it’s there!» |
| But me and my mountain |
| We’re not getting, getting nowhere |
| Why is everybody laughing at me? |
| Why is everybody happy but me? |
| While I was standing here |
| I got this wild idea |
| I thought everyone was laughing at me |
| Now you see the way things are |
| You can’t pretend you’re blind |
| You can’t have a change of heart |
| Without a change of mind |
| Now you see the way things are |
| You can’t pretend |
| Pretend that you’re blind |
| Stop talking, start walking! |
| Do something more than moving your mouth |
