Looked at my window for Robinson Crusoe All I can see is Daniel Defoe Everyone movin' in different directions I don't know which way I can go, tell meNow I like the blues and I like cathedrals I like the ladies' hands on my knee I don't care what you think of my music I sure care a lot what you think about meMeanwhile, the man inside me rages He's tryin' to be free, you know he tryin' to be released Meanwhile, clean out your cages The nearer you're gonna get, the closer you're gonna beThe nearer you'll get, the closer you'll be The nearer you'll get, the closer you'll be The nearer you get, the closer you'll beI like the blues and I like the Beatles I like the ladies' hands on my knee I don't care what you think of my music I sure care a lot what you think about meMeanwhile, the man inside me rages He's trying to be free, you know he's tryin' to be released Meanwhile, clean out your cages The nearer you're gonna get, the closer you're gonna beThe nearer you'll get, the closer you'll be The nearer you'll get, the closer you'll be The nearer you get, the closer you'll be
