Manic Panic Epiphanic
Girl, don't act so manic
I promise you, we're gonna be fine
Ain't no need to panic
I'm telling you, we'll get our chance to shine
I got some reassurance
That things are gonna work this time
You know that we've been walking a dangerous line
While all the world's been spinning on a dime
(We go leaning out over the roof ledge)
We should try to sit still
(We keep sliding on the knife edge)
Like to get the both of us killed
But he's got the whole world in his hands
He's got the whole wide world in his hands (in his hands)
Don't the news look frightening?
We have come so far so fast (Come so far so fast)
We're like bottled lightning
But how we supposed to make it last?
Love is life's assurance
No matter how the dice get cast
The wheel of fortune will turn again
The present now will soon be past
(We go leaning out over the roof ledge)
We should try to sit still
(We keep on sliding up and down the knife edge)
Like to get the both of us killed
But he's got the whole world in his hands
He's got the whole wide world in his hands (in his hands)
He's got the whole world in his hands (in his hands)
He's got the whole wide world in his hands (in his hands, in his hands)
(We keep on leaning out over the roof ledge)
When we should try to sit still?
(We go on sliding up and down the knife edge)
Like to get the both of us killed
Well, just remember, remember what is really and truly and deeply true
And any time you can remember that you'll get happy
And smile the whole day through
All you are is just a little, tiny God-soul paddling life's canoe
Take a ride down the river
Take a ride down the river
And do what good that you can find to do
Do what good you can do
Do whatever good you can do
Riding down the river
In your little canoe
Maybe you'll find your little canoe is, on occasion, big enough for two
Bang the groove
On the groove on what is really true now
On what good you can do
I promise you, we're gonna be fine
Ain't no need to panic
I'm telling you, we'll get our chance to shine
I got some reassurance
That things are gonna work this time
You know that we've been walking a dangerous line
While all the world's been spinning on a dime
(We go leaning out over the roof ledge)
We should try to sit still
(We keep sliding on the knife edge)
Like to get the both of us killed
But he's got the whole world in his hands
He's got the whole wide world in his hands (in his hands)
Don't the news look frightening?
We have come so far so fast (Come so far so fast)
We're like bottled lightning
But how we supposed to make it last?
Love is life's assurance
No matter how the dice get cast
The wheel of fortune will turn again
The present now will soon be past
(We go leaning out over the roof ledge)
We should try to sit still
(We keep on sliding up and down the knife edge)
Like to get the both of us killed
But he's got the whole world in his hands
He's got the whole wide world in his hands (in his hands)
He's got the whole world in his hands (in his hands)
He's got the whole wide world in his hands (in his hands, in his hands)
(We keep on leaning out over the roof ledge)
When we should try to sit still?
(We go on sliding up and down the knife edge)
Like to get the both of us killed
Well, just remember, remember what is really and truly and deeply true
And any time you can remember that you'll get happy
And smile the whole day through
All you are is just a little, tiny God-soul paddling life's canoe
Take a ride down the river
Take a ride down the river
And do what good that you can find to do
Do what good you can do
Do whatever good you can do
Riding down the river
In your little canoe
Maybe you'll find your little canoe is, on occasion, big enough for two
Bang the groove
On the groove on what is really true now
On what good you can do
