Unfathomable mysteries,
Shadows in the big trees.
Strange it seemed to find a thick hand,
In the waist band of my 501 jeans
Whose buttons
Come undone.
It's farther from certain,
No doubt now it's curtains,
Seemed it was the same thing,
The home team at the end of the ninth,
The ump calling balls
Strikes all night.
You wake slow on Sunday,
Time flowed till Monday.
Still the same thought won't stop vexing,
Like a tingle,
You feel the fix,
Settling in....
Live and learn I heard it said,
I'm just a monkey on a string my friend.
Even so we've come quite far,
In my mind a star and everything...
Now I sit and shout for no one,
Hoping maybe someone like you,
I was some
Kind of fool
About everything...
Shine a little sun...
'bout everything...
Shine a little sun...
