Well, you can try and run me down
But you can't drive me underground
When you're not there, I'll be around
To haunt you, I won't make a sound
Track you, I don't need a hound
You think you're lost, I got you found
You're surrounded, although you think that they can't see
Your castle walls, they all will fall
You'll be surprised that all in all
Nobody really cares at all
You won't believe the beggar's gull
That can bite your heels when you crawl
Pain can come from those so small
Go cry wolf or better, you should scream
Though you're not on top, you think you're first
Some surgeon's scalpel steals a nurse
Who can let the others feel the hurt
When you're the driver of the hearse
So you'll feel bad, but they'll feel worse
Without you, where would the doctor be?
I'm watching you, but not quite like before
I will find you, you're the one I'm looking for
But when it's over, don't say sorry anymore
A brushless painter running down
Into the night to paint the town
While putting everybody on
Blowing smoke rings for the clowns
You brag of those you've been around
They listen to your silly sounds
Disciples pass your bread around
While the cross is hidden in your gown
They think that they're on holy ground
Not knowing Judas watches from the tree
While posing as the saint of need
Godfather to the one who's weak
By using words like "sad defeat"
You laugh, but you gotta lose the beat
The girls all giggle at your feet
The squealing people that you meet
You might get made, but be discreet
Don't you take your mask off and trick or treat
As you get the stars down on their knees
But do you really think that you have fortune beat?
Believing in the magic noose
That trips the egg, the golden goose
And with it you can never lose
While fairy tales are still the truth
Don't let go, hey, don't let loose
For the goose is flipping off the roof
And without its wings, how can you be free?
But I'm watching you, but not quite like before
I will find you, you're the one I'm looking for
But when it's over, don't say sorry anymore
A ranger, he just rides along
Protecting those that don't belong
In the land where there's no right or wrong
Tonto, you just load his gun
For killing outlaws one by one
And shooting in-laws just for fun
While the jungle laws are on the run
"Step out before you get stepped on"
You say this with your war paint on
Afraid if you're in the dark too long
'Cause you know the jungle's no place for the meek
You say life is absurdity
A carnival for melodies
You eye the big time bitterly
And set the stage so faithfully
A hawker for Lord Mystery
While marching so religiously
Is the army that has paid to see
The choirboy of reality
Laugh at all authority
And you smile oh so cynically
The sole possessor of his key
But it's sad to know that's all you'll ever be
And you say keep on the sunny side
That life is just a rainbow ride
A silver-studded surfboard glide
On the wine of waves to keep you high
Don't you hit the moon when you fly too wide
It'll bring you down below the tides
Where no one keeps their tears inside
The waters can't hide 'em if you cry
For in the waves, there are no mysteries
But I'm watching you, but not quite like before
I will find you, you're the one I'm looking for
But when it's over, don't say sorry anymore
