Oh these odd years when reviewed i constantly find
Hey when i'm reaching for the light darkness is not far behind
You might think i've learned a thing or two about playing it cool
Well you might think that that is so ah but no no the opposite's true
You might think in the storm we've discovered the eye of the calm
But i've yet to find a way to dodge all these sweaty little palms
Yeah you might think we've made some enemies but i just can't i recall who
You might think it keeps us up at night but no no the opposite's true
Are there any words of wisdom i've picked up along the way
Why yes death usually comes dressed up in her finery and lace
Hey hasn't everyone in these bars been crying inside their whole life through
Well you might think we cease to hear it ah but no no the opposite's true
Kings and queens are bankrupt here at the mouth of the nile
They say the pyramids they're all looted pharaoh won't be back for a while
Crocodiles are hungry see them polish their top ends with care
I used to understand their language but now i'm just unaware
Used to install fire alarms before i ever started to sing
After all these years i find i've been doing the same thing
Hey everyone stop check your pulse never mind it's code blue
Well you might think to call the doctor but no no the opposite's true
