Getting Wise

[00:17.79] Oh, youre steeped in the winters chase
[00:21.52] Even before the Tenenbaum has all dried up,
[00:26.78] But Im going to teach to you different this time
[00:31.13] Im awful clever as you almost certainly know.
[00:35.18] Cos if you want to walk that way,
[00:39.05] Know that I will meet you there half way or none.
[00:44.23] Yes Im going to teach you different in this life,
[00:48.87] Theres more than one way to go through it, dont go it alone!
[00:53.27] There are few who will know where their heart truly lie,
[00:56.95] For the rest theres no hope: they can barely decide!
[01:01.36] So a few um and ah so they never ever start!
[01:05.96] So if you want my advice you dont have to ask me twice I'll tell you darling:
[01:12.06] (And then we all say)
[01:14.16] Were getting wise and finding our feet.
[01:28.02] Steeped in the winters law, do you realize you ride with dreamers on your high horse?
[01:36.79] Well Im gonna teach you different, of course;
[01:41.03] You wouldnt act so clever if it werent for tomorrow.
[01:46.05] And you want to walk that way, with all that virtue theres no hours left in the day!
[01:54.14] Oh when all the sweat you break is just paying someone elses way,
[01:58.78] Its fine to fall in line, if its for your own sake!
[02:03.13] Or else run, you could hide, you could see what its like,
[02:07.22] Youll soon find its no fun to have fun all the time!
[02:12.44] Go find God in some form, let his love keep you warm,
[02:16.50] Its entirely your call if he calls you.
[02:20.88] But if you would desire in all things to be wise youll be none the wiser if you ever get there,
[02:28.97] The truth of your idols is most of them died before anybody saw.
[02:37.43] Yes there are few who will know where their hearts truly lie,
[02:42.03] Much less I, Im not nearly as clever as Id like.
[02:46.32] So what I mean to say is I dont know what to say!
[02:52.11] But listen
[02:56.59] Were getting wise and finding our feet,
[03:01.81] (And then we all say)
[03:02.63] If you want to walk that way,
[03:04.97] Were getting wise and finding our feet.
[03:11.95] Were getting wiser well find out one of these days.
[03:13.02] So walk.
[03:14.52] If you want to walk that way,
[03:15.18] Were getting wise and finding our feet.
