Old Man
Old man, what'd you do today
With no food or regular pay
And no word from the miracle men
Sitting right here til they do it again
Someday
He's hangin' around
He's not beggin' for food but he needs to
He's a smart man
Unluckier than some, he's out in the rain
He said, "We all make choices at the end of the day
If I had it all over I'd do it again the same"
He said I'll tell you about things that you won't know
This city is a freak show
One of a kind times a million and ten
Waiting for a flight but they don't know when it goes
Me, I'd leave it alone
There's a better way to find freedom
And who's to say that Lennon ever went away
It's all just a state of mind
He said, "One day the bubble breaks
It's simply a matter of time"
It's not fate no, and it sure ain't chance
But somewhere in the middle in circumstance
I found my tree
And the will to dance again
I wouldn't change anything
It's a grand old life and I'm breathing
And who'd to say that Lenin ever went away
It's all just a state of mind
He said, "One day the bubble breaks
It's simply a matter of time"
With no food or regular pay
And no word from the miracle men
Sitting right here til they do it again
Someday
He's hangin' around
He's not beggin' for food but he needs to
He's a smart man
Unluckier than some, he's out in the rain
He said, "We all make choices at the end of the day
If I had it all over I'd do it again the same"
He said I'll tell you about things that you won't know
This city is a freak show
One of a kind times a million and ten
Waiting for a flight but they don't know when it goes
Me, I'd leave it alone
There's a better way to find freedom
And who's to say that Lennon ever went away
It's all just a state of mind
He said, "One day the bubble breaks
It's simply a matter of time"
It's not fate no, and it sure ain't chance
But somewhere in the middle in circumstance
I found my tree
And the will to dance again
I wouldn't change anything
It's a grand old life and I'm breathing
And who'd to say that Lenin ever went away
It's all just a state of mind
He said, "One day the bubble breaks
It's simply a matter of time"
