[ Featuring His Minions, Me ]
Things take time, you're impatient, always in a hurry
It all weighs on your mind, always a constant worry
Ya' know ya' gonna get burned if ya' play with fire
Just like ya' gonna get stung if ya' walk that briar
Don't stray that path even though it's dark
An' listen for that sweet lazy meadowlark
It'll guide ya' home
Let it guide ya' home
Just listen real close
And you'll no longer have to roam
Like wakin' up late, waitin' in line, sittin' in traffic
Layin' in bed, lookin' for time, ain't gonna have it
Ya' know ya' gonna get burned if ya' play with fire
Just like ya' gonna get stung if ya' walk that briar
Don't stray that path even though it's dark
An' listen for that sweet lazy meadowlark
It'll guide ya' home
Let it guide ya' home
Just listen real close
You won't be alone
A dance of chance ya' gotta abide
Time gone by now denied
Ya' watched that ol' clock in stride
The unrelentin' an' mystified
It's a train that don't stop
In a middle, no bottom, no top
It just goes on an' on
An' on an' on
An' on an' on
An' on an' on
An' on
Ya' know ya' gonna get burned if ya' play with fire
Just like ya' gonna get stung if ya' walk that briar
Don't stray that path even though it's dark
An' listen for that sweet lazy meadowlark
It'll guide ya' home
Let it guide ya' home
Just listen real close
For that tone from the unknown
Ya' know ya' gonna get burned if ya' play with fire
Just like ya' gonna get stung if ya' walk that briar
Don't stray that path even though it's dark
An' listen for that sweet lazy meadowlark
