Wise Up [Aimee Mann]
Goodbye Stranger [Supertramp]
Logical Song [Supertramp]
It’s not what you thought when you first began it
You got what you want now you can hardly stand it
Though, by now you know
It’s not going to stop. It’s not going to stop.
It’s not going to stop ’til you wise up
You’re sure there’s a cure and you have finally found it
You think one drink will shrink you
‘Til you’re underground and living down
It’s not going to stop. It’s not going to stop.
It’s not going to stop ’til you wise up
Prepare a list of what you need before you sign away the deed
‘Cause it’s not going to stop. It’s not going to stop
No, it’s not going to stop, ’til you wise up
No, it’s not going to stop, ’til you wise up
No, it’s not going to stop, so just give up
It was an early morning yesterday
I was up before the dawn
And I really have enjoyed my stay
But I must be moving on
Like a king without a castle
Like a queen without a throne
I’m an early morning lover
And I must be moving on
Now I believe in what you say
Is the undisputed truth
But I have to have things my own way
To keep me in my youth
Like a ship without an anchor
Like a slave without a chain
Just the thought of those sweet ladies
Sends a shiver through my veins
And I will go on shining
Shining llike brand new
I’ll never look behind me
My troubles will be few
Goodbye stranger it’s been nice
Hope you find your paradise
Tried to see your point of view
Hope your dreams will all come true
Goodbye Mary, Goodbye Jane
Will we ever meet again
Feel no sorrow, feel no shame
Come tomorrow, feel no pain
Now some they do and some they don’t
And some you just can’t tell
And some they will and some they won’t
With some it’s just as well
You can laugh at my behavior
That’ll never bother me
Say the devil is my savior
But I don’t pay no heed
And I will go on shining
Shining llike brand new
I’ll never look behind me
My troubles will be few
When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
And all the birds in the trees, well they’d be singing so happily,
Joyfully, playfully watching me.
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
Logical, responsible, practical.
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
Clinical, intellectual, cynical.
There are times when all the world’s asleep,
The questions run too deep
For such a simple man.
Won’t you please, please tell me what we’ve learned
I know it sounds absurd
But please tell me who I am.
