Bourbon Tabernacle Choir - While We've Got Your Attention I'd Like to Point Out a Couple of Things lyrics

When you look at all those faces Do you look them in the eyes Do you see yourself as part of a great big world Or some entity reserved for a higher prize I know you got yourself a game plan You got this whole thing figured out Well I wish you all the best But self importance ain't success And takes very little into account So you're into lovin' groovy Sad 'cause this whole world's got the blues But do you think more of the guy Who sat beside you on the bus Than the fact you might've scuffed your shoes I hear you preachin' bout some big plan Add water ideas unevolved I hear some pseudo sensitivities Devoid of sensibilities And thoughts empty of rational love I ain't lookin' for an explanation I ain't lookin' for a sacrifice I don't promise any final reward, but You better want to be you Good morning my old friend I'd say you look a bit like hell The sweet Miami sunshine Can't disguise your rancid smell you look into the mirror and you're drowning in its spell I wouldn't want to be you I wouldn't want to be you They used to call you "general", But now all you've got are twisted stories That your tortured tell I'd never ask you for your earthly belongings Or to question what you think is right But your relationship within this world Must be above that of a parasite I don't deny a living thing of it's infinite worth The tiny ant, he builds his house with pride But with the gravity so many claim of their existence It's a wonder these nine planets Don't get confused and collide When you look at all those faces Do you look them in the eyes Do you see yourself as part of a great big world Or some entity reserved for a higher prize I know you got yourself a game plan You got this whole thing figured out Well I wish you all the best But self importance ain't success And takes very little into account I don't deny a living thing of it's infinite worth The tiny ant, he builds his house with pride But with the gravity so many claim of their existence It's a wonder these nine planets Don't get confused and collide
