Lyrics
0:57It doesn't take a lot to confuse me
1:00I'm not aware of the passing of time
1:04And I'd like to say to those who accuse me
1:08Could you do it while you looked in my eye
1:11If you hold on primitive notion
1:14And if you think you'd like to try
1:18You can drink this magic potion
1:22And you can do it 'til the day that you
1:24The day that you die
1:26I've done it before and I'll do it again
1:29A judgement of life that I'll burn 'til the end
1:33How can it be that we're so far apart
1:37I want it to be like it did at the start
1:54I'm doing my best to confound you
1:58Your behaviour is so volatile
2:02Not even a zoo would impound you
2:05Don't look at me with your criticle smile
2:08Well I've been driving in the wrong gear
2:12It's been a long and lonely ride
2:16It's been winter for a whole year
2:19But you couldn't hurt me if you tried
2:23I've done it before and I'll do it again
2:27Charged with a life that'll burn 'til the end
2:31How can it be that we're so far apart
2:34I want it to be like it did at the start
4:04I've done it before and I'll do it again
4:07A judgement of life that I'll burn 'til the end
4:11How can it be that we're so far apart
4:14I want it to be like it did at the start
4:18I've got a message that I need to send
4:21It's coming to you straight from a friend
4:25I wanted to see what's inside my heart
4:29I want it to be like it was at the start
It doesn't take a lot to confuse me I'm not aware of the passing of time And I'd like to say to those who accuse me Could you do it while you looked in my eye If you hold on primitive notion And if you think you'd like to try You can drink this magic potion And you can do it 'til the day that you The day that you die I've done it before and I'll do it again A judgement of life that I'll burn 'til the end How can it be that we're so far apart I want it to be like it did at the start I'm doing my best to confound you Your behaviour is so volatile Not even a zoo would impound you Don't look at me with your criticle smile Well I've been driving in the wrong gear It's been a long and lonely ride It's been winter for a whole year But you couldn't hurt me if you tried I've done it before and I'll do it again Charged with a life that'll burn 'til the end How can it be that we're so far apart I want it to be like it did at the start I've done it before and I'll do it again A judgement of life that I'll burn 'til the end How can it be that we're so far apart I want it to be like it did at the start I've got a message that I need to send It's coming to you straight from a friend I wanted to see what's inside my heart I want it to be like it was at the start
