Crest Of A Wave (Alternate Take 2)

Still rolling? Yes?

Well, you can ride on the crest of a wave
If that's where you wanna be
But does the look on your face mean you really feeling happy?

Or do you feel like you're standing on a wooden leg
Or a poor man much to proud to beg
Or a page from a book that can't be read at all?

Oh, yeah

You gotta see by the way that they are talking
That it's time for you to pick up your grip, start walking

'Cause they want to see your long legs are flying
Go to the place where the Earth meets the sky and
Don't stop to turn around and wave goodbye

They won't be satisfied
'Til you're out of their sight
But I wonder how will they feel
With a deck of cards
And you're not around to deal, alright

They won't be satisfied
'Til you're out of their sight
But I wonder how will they feel
With a deck of cards
You're not around, you're not around to deal?

Well, they say it's a lie, it's a joke that you are living
But you know one thing, that you won't give in

But you're like a cat chasin' its tail
Who makes a million circles, but you're gonna fail
What's up, sometimes you don't understand at all

Well, you can ride on the crest of a wave
If that's where you want to be
But does the look on your face mean you're really feeling happy?

Well, do you feel like you're standing on a wooden leg
A poor man much to proud to beg
Or a page from a book that can't be read at all?

Do you feel like you're standing on a wooden leg
A poor man much to proud to beg
Or a page from a book that can't be read at all?
