Like a fire burning in the kitchen sink Like a choir that can't agree on what to sing Like a wild raging river that just can't find the will You change your mind a thousand times, deciding to stand still Better to live than to explain Better to write than to have read Better to cope than to complain Better in your hands that in your head Easier done that said Like a dying flower that just don't give a damn Like a higher power nobody cares to understand Like a horse on a merry-go-round spinnin' at a county fair Just running 'round in circles not gettin' anywhere Better to guide than criticize Better to lead than to be led Better to act than to an*lyze Better in your hands than in your head Easier done than said Like a tree that doesn't grow 'cause it's afraid of the sky Like a lamp that doesn't glow and doesn't wonder why Like a cigarette that's burnin' on the side of the road A little less concern and no telling where you go Better to live than to explain Better to write than to have read Better to cope than to complain Better in your hands than in your head Easier done than said
