If I stop and think about it I'm either stone cold certain Or more inclined to doubt it But when you jump into the darkness Well, I take off my hat You've changed, they say You can know when to play or to hold And they...

Did you do me right? Did I do right by you? When I bared my soul it seems you did not hear Can this be true? Am I fool to fight? I could do just what you say But I'm following my heart And that takes me another way...

Wake up this mornin' and the paper's on the mat Poor getting poorer and the rich are getting fat again Up in the towers all the bosses sittin' sneezing A half asleep and the rest all start to squeezing tight Don't...
