Careering |
I don’t know, can’t you see |
I’m just passing through, fast as you — |
Don’t ask me |
Careering out of control |
Disappearing down the black hole |
Careering — the white man’s soul |
Stands stark naked in the floodlight glare |
Stands stark raving on the strap |
I’ve had the feeling that I’ve been there |
But I can’t quite believe it |
I don’t know, can’t you see |
I’m just passing through, fast as you |
So don’t ask me |
Careering, simply day to day |
Engineering everything I say |
Careering for the work and the pay |
I’m just a passenger passing through |
I’m just an average chap |
(We are normal.) |
If I said I hadn’t got a clue |
There’d still come the questions |
I don’t know, can’t you see |
I’m just another case of wasted space |
So don’t ask me |
Careering, my apprenticeship |
No nearer than my pension slip; |
Careering down the Cresta Run |
I screw it up just like anyone; |
Careering — pointless anyway |
To do it just for the work and the pay |
Look here: |
I don’t know, can’t you see |
I’m so near the end, get it straight, friend — |
Don’t ask me |
Don’t ask me |
Don’t ask me |
