lyrics

I can't explain a thing
Sit back and watch the day bring
A wince and smile to see this through
Got us pegged well good on you

The good guy was last to arrive
Now he's swept up for the ride
Push to pedal back a few

That is quite the grand display
Watch for what you can't unsay
We all got problems to tend to

Don't think anybody knows what's going on round here, except the
Groundskeeper, the cook, the teacher, dash of reason, always deeper
Don't think anybody grows while shutting up in here
Let's ask the good preacher, the fortune seeker, washes out with the street-sweeper
And then it goes down hill

I can't refrain or pay heed
Not all who run should take lead
One step, two, a race to be seen
Grease the wheel, it's just a machine

The morning after before parting
Wave hello to the herb garden
Holding out for some good news

I heard it from a working stiff
The only soul here on this ship
Who's got anything to lose

Don't think anybody knows what's going on round here, except the
Groundskeeper, the cook, the teacher, dash of reason, always deeper
Don't think anybody grows while shutting up in here
Let's ask the good preacher, the fortune seeker, washes out with the street-sweeper
And then it goes down hill

Mark one down for my two cents
No good conviction goes unspent
Thinkin' bout our new old deal
Canned up in my automobile

Don't think anybody knows what's going on round here, except the
Groundskeeper, the cook, the teacher, dash of reason, always deeper
Don't think anybody grows while shutting up in here
Let's ask the good preacher, the fortune seeker, washes out with the street-sweeper
And then it goes down hill
