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?
+
Or do you feel like you're standing on a wooden leg
+
Or a poor man much too proud to beg
+
Or a page from a book that can't be read at all?
+
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 flying
+
Go to the place where the earth meets the sky and
+
Don't stop to turn around and wave goodbye at all
+
They won't be satisfied
+
Till you're out of their sight
+
But I wonder how will you feel
+
With a deck of cards
+
You're not around to deal
+
You're not around to deal
+
They won't be satisfied
+
Till you're out of their sight
+
But I wonder how will you feel
+
With a deck of cards
+
You're not around to deal?
+
You're not around to deal
+
Well, they say it's a lie, a joke
+
That you are living
+
But you know one thing they don't
+
You won't give in
+
'Cause you're like a cat, chasin' its tail
+
Makes a million circles but you're gonna fail
+
Look down you just don't understand
+
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 too proud to beg
+
Or a page from a book that can't be read at all?
