Walking straight ahead Wondering in the way I wander My feet are feeling fine What’s that up ahead? Someone coming up the way He is a worldly man! I tell him my plan and he says “What are you doing? You’re simple as pudding It’s not worth pursuing I know the way out!” All the ways of a fool They are right in his own eyes Go on back, keep your cool Don’t you miss the city lights And those worldly delights? Trust me, I know I’m right Reason is the rule Logic is a mighty Fortress And life is nothing more Perception is the truth Why not make it what you want? And I’m a successful man! My offer is easy “Invent your reality Made up morality Legal legality Second to none” (x2) All the ways of a fool They are right in his own eyes Go on back, keep your cool Don’t you miss the city lights And those worldly delights? Trust me, I know I’m right I think I’ll go the way Walking with the worldly wise man I’ll just change it up a bit And go the more logical way Because it seems good to me To live a life that’s free from care And my new reality I will speak into the air And life is awaiting me I’ll learn what they’re teaching me And surely my destiny will follow Forget all about that dream I’ll find a place in between And just take a turn-about tomorrow
