Well, someone told me, tried to tell me It sounded backwards and upside down Someone told me something That really messed my head around And I wondered sadly I sadly wondered Could we ever be on common ground? Read and listen, I watch and listen It's like a train wreck and I can't turn away So many worlds colliding Everywhere, every day People looking at the same things All the same things Them in conflicting ways Well, if you see me walking down the avenue Call my name and I just stare a hole through you Please don't worry about me 'cause I'm really fine Sometimes I just get lost inside my mind Someone told me, tried to tell me He was dressed and painted like a clown Someone told me something Tried to mess my head around Around and round But I had a feeling he knew That his words were untrue We'll never be on common ground Well, I know a man you can't own up to the things he's done He's got no sense of honor and never did have one Where would he be without a wall to hide behind? I'm glad I'm not the one living in his mind
