Point Of View

(album: Grinspoon - 1995)

"I'm primed for the airwaves,
I can do it guys, really I can"

Taxi man you drive too slow
Brought the child out to be shown
How to exist down here

Grab a complex, be like me
Pimples control the way that you wanna be
Yeah, I let you exist in society

I need a green just as much as you
But it's not the way
I want it now but your point of view
Points the other way yeah
So paranoid it is making sense
I've got to get away
Right to the top, just avoid the fence

Cranky mum I'm sorry that
Your daughter's gone and caught it
Pretend it was never there
Frankly dad your brain is sick
All's I need's another fucking lunatic
Yeah, your insecurity shows

I need a green just as much as you
But it's not the way
I want it now but your point of view
Point's the other way yeah
So paranoid it is making sense
I've got to get away
Right to the top just avoid the fence

Big girl I've said too much
Should have kept my mouth shut
Did it occur to you?
Love me, leave me, take me there
We can sit on porches and our
Rocking chairs yeah
Watching that world go by

I need a green just as much as you
But it's not the way
I want it now but your point of view
Points the other way yeah
So paranoid it is making sense
I've got to get away
Right to the top just avoid the fence
