Life's One Act Play |
My days are shaded gray |
And my nights are shaded blue |
My face is lined with worry |
And my mind is split in two |
Feel just like a man |
Who’s last real hope is gone |
Morality and religion |
Didn’t teach me right from wrong |
And I need a little something |
Oh, just to mellow my days |
'Cause I’m getting tired of acting |
In lifes one act play |
The world is changing fast |
Ain’t got time to think twice |
Wanna keep on the ball |
Then you got to pay the price |
You can’t judge the future |
By looking at the past |
And there ain’t nobody out there |
Who you can stop and ask |
Oh, I need a little something |
Just to mellow my days |
'Cause I’m getting tired of acting |
In lifes one act play |
Some people think, oh yes they do They found the way |
But they’re a dime a dozen |
You can see them everyday |
Some people are happy |
In their delusions |
Oh, I wish sometimes |
I could share, I could share their illusions |
But nobody really knows |
What this life is all about |
Those who think they do Are the ones who should have doubts |
Sometimes I wonder |
What they are going to do When their cozy dreams are shattered |
And reality shows through |
Oh, I need a little something |
Just to mellow my days |
'Cause I’m getting tired of acting |
In lifes one act play |
And I need a little something |
Just to mellow my days |
'Cause I’m getting tired of acting |
In lifes one act play |
In lifes one act play |
In lifes one act play |
In lifes one act play |
