When I see you you're setting a fire

while everybody else is just doing the same, all the time

when I see me I see a retired

while everybody else is just acting so wise, all the time

and when I think of her I think I'm a liar

while she's giving head to somebody else, maybe

when I think of her again I'm in desire

and in the meantime she's doing it all so well.


Let's thank god for his creation

he's dealing with the body

dealing with the body and brain, just the brain?

I wanna blame god for his creation

it's running through the cities,

running around with different names, different names


When I see the cars and trains roll by,

I hear the sound of a missing link, all the time

and when we sit around face to face

I'm still figuring out what to say, while you're already away

When I see you you're setting a fire

while everybody else is just doing the same, all the time

when I see me I see a retired

while everybody else is just acting so wise, all the time


Let's thank god for his creation

he's dealing with the body

dealing with the body and brain, just the brain?

I wanna thank god for his creation

it's running through the cities,

running around with different names, different names
