Van Morrison - Thanks For The Information lyrics

Thanks for the information Never give a s**er an even break When he's breaking through To a new level of consciousness There always seems to be more Obstacles in the way Thanks for the information i know It's only a combat zone Thanks for the memory, I'll just have To carry on on my own Chorus: And it's wonderful and it's marvelous How we can ever make it through Sometimes i wonder how we can ever Make it from day to day Thanks for the information What you gain on the hobby horse you lose on the swing I like mine over easy And you can have your's sunny side up I don't wanna quibble over insignificant details And i've tried every trick in the book Thanks for the information I know i should look before i leap Chorus: And it's wonderful and it's marvelous How we can ever make it through Sometimes i wonder how We can ever make it at all Thanks for the information Never give a s**er an even break And with her everything light becomes heavy And everything heavy becomes light They took me down to the watering hole Because i happened to mention i was dying of thirst Then they told me he who believes first will be later And he who believes later will be first Chorus: And it's wonderful etc etc.... Thanks for the information Oh never give a s**er an even break When you're on to something it's a Dime in a dozen people start Coming out of the woodwork Thanks for the invitation I know i must be on to something big Everytime i take two steps forward I end up having to take three back Chorus: And it's wonderful etc etc.... Thanks for the information A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush Every time i'm ready for a major breakthrough I always have to think in terms of better of worse Thanks for the information Thanks for the memory
