Man Of Simple Pleasures
Im a man, a man of simple pleasures
I got all I need, so give me whisky measures
With dyslexic eyes Im seeing very clearly
By the way, Im on my way
But all of my life,
Ive been treated like a fool
But Im no ones fool
Here I go once again trying hard to pretend
Theres a future in your man made rules
Ill be governed by the road,
get to shed this heavy load
I see no future, so leave me alone in the past
I am told, the world is nearly ending
But when I look outside
the birds are always singing
You throw sticks and bones
Remember every dog will have its day, Im on my way
But all of my life,
Ive been treated like a fool
But Im no ones fool
Here I go once again trying hard to pretend
Theres a future in your man made rules
Ill be governed by the road,
get to shed this heavy load
Ive seen your future,
so leave me alone in the past
Go on, let the righteous guide you home
to where you belong
Ill stay, listen to my favourite tunes,
thats where I belong
You wont take me for a ride
Im far too fast for you to keep up with me
You wont take me for a ride
Never catch them really need no money
(Im not gonna be standing in the line
Waiting for you just to kick me out)
You wont take me for a ride,
You wont take me for a ride
Ill come down
End
