E.G. Phillips - Fish from the Sky

Sett'n My Own Pace

I've got no obligations and there's nothing on my plate
I can jump the gun or be late out the gate
No need to touch base; let them keep their rat race
I'll face my isolation as something to embrace

I'm Sett'n My Own Pace
I can walk with grace or I can schlep
I'm Sett'n My Own Pace
I'm in a one-man band not a string quartet
I'm Sett'n My Own Pace
There's no one else to motivate___ and
There's no one to impress

I've got no one to placate; there's no one I need to please
There's nothing to negotiate, I'm free as the breeze
I'm nobody's bellwether and nobody's black sheep
I'm not henpecked or hogtied or made to beg upon my knees

I'm Sett'n My Own Pace
I can walk with grace or I can schlep
I'm Sett'n My Own Pace
I'm in a one-man band not a string quartet
I'm Sett'n My Own Pace
There's no one else to motivate___ and
There's no one to impress

I do wish it could be a duet
Have someone to keep up with
For some reason that hasn't happened yet
I must maintain my stride nonetheless

I awake in Marrakesh where I've booked a room with a
kitchenette I hear the call to prayer echoing from the minarets
Oh no I've slept all day oh well, so what
That's okay with me and I'm the one who calls the shots!

I'm Sett'n My Own Pace
I can walk with grace or I can schlep
I'm Sett'n My Own Pace
I'm in a one-man band not a string quartet
I'm Sett'n My Own Pace
There's no one else to motivate___ and
There's no one to impress
