Righteous Me

(album: Where It Is - 1987)

The autumn of this winter
I've forgotten how to breathe
Made my mind up three times or more
Simple life of make-believe
My head was in the clouds
Feet nailed to the floor
My right hand held the hammer
Left knows what my right hand's for
But I'm still waiting
It seems to me
I spend my whole life anticipating

But when I laugh, when I smile
I could leap tall buildings, run a mile
I laugh and then I smile

I have a house and children
I have everything I need
Voice concern but I don't complain
Remember I've four mouths to feed
But I'm still waiting
And it seems to me that I've
Spent my whole life anticipating

When I laugh and smile
I could leap tall buildings, run a mile
I laugh and then I smile
So when I laugh and smile
I could leap tall buildings, run a mile
I laugh and then I smile
I do
