All Things Considered
There is this older guy that comes around from time to time
We're sure that he fought in the war, the war in Vietnam
Most of what he tells us, no one's verified
He swears that he was there the day that Brendan Behan died
He also claims he trained a kid named Cassius Clay
And cost Goldwater the election on election day
If he was still with us today, then he would introduce
Us to his closest friend, the one and only Lenny Bruce
The truth is what he's been through
And what he's had to do
What he's seen, and what he's done
All things considered
What he's telling us
Isn't hurting anyone
We knew it's true he's short a few, check out the deck, it's light
Said he wrote the entire soundtrack to "A Hard Day's Night"
On Peyton Place played second base, he says but he regrets
The stadium was Shea, the team the New York Mets
The truth is what he's been through
And what he's had to do
What he's seen, and what he's done
All things considered
What he's telling us
Isn't hurting anyone
All things considered
He's not bitter
He's not mean
No, he's not done
All things considered
What he's telling us
Isn't hurting anyone
There is this older guy that comes around from time to time
We're sure that he fought in the war, the war in Vietnam
Most of what he tells us, no one's verified
He swears he was there the day that Brendan Behan died
The truth is what he's been through
And what he's had to do
What he's seen, and what he's done
All things considered
What he's telling us
Isn't hurting anyone
All things considered
He's not bitter
He's not mean
No, he's not done
All things considered
What he's telling us
Isn't hurting anyone
Every now and then, we hear our song
Every now and then, we hear our song
And every now and then, we hear our song
Every now and then, we hear our song
We're sure that he fought in the war, the war in Vietnam
