lyrics: |
I once saw a madness take place with in man, like any good witness I walked to the stand
I showed them the suspect for them to condemn, I told them the things that I thought he had done
The judge found him guilty no chance to post bail, before long he was spending a lifetime in jail
One day did I see that that man had gone free, he came up to me and boy he said
(chorus:)
I, I, oh I-da-dye, I am a two-sided man
I, I, oh I-da-dye, I am a two-sided man
I've talked about living made plain what I think, I've talked about war and all kinds of things
I've shown all my viewpoints for others to judge, and gone through this world like a god up above
And everywhere thinking I knew all I could, that bad was all bad and good was all good
One day did I see that life ain’t all it seems, I still feel the doubt in me
(chorus)
Now I'm right back here at the start, just when I thought that I made it so far
So I'll play on my guitar, within the hopes that I might win your heart
Cause I don't know that much though I once thought I did, I don't know enough about how I should live
But I'll tell you right now that of one thing I'm sure, love is the answer that I'm looking for
So I called up my captain and told him my thoughts, I told him his ship it was bound for the rocks
But he went on without me and forgot all about me, and on leaving he shouted me
(chorus) |
