(Verse 1)

You can try and run me down

But you can’t drive me on the ground

When you’re not there I’ll be around

Haunt you I won’t make a sound

Track you I don’t need a hound

You think your lost I got you found

You’re surrounded though 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 biggest xxx

I can bite your heels when you crawl

The pain will come from those so small

Go cry wolf or better you should scream

Though you’re not on top you think your first

Some surgeon scalpel steal the 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 what would the doctor be?

(Chorus)

I’m watching you but not like quite before

I will find you you’re the one I’ve been looking for

But when it’s done don’t say sorry any more

(Verse 2)

Abreast this painter run him down

Into the night to paint the town

While putting everybody on

Blowing smoke rings for the crown

You brag of those you’ve been around

You 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

You got fathered to the one who’s weak

By using words like sad defeat

You laugh but you got 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 of trick or treat

As you get the stars down on their knees

But do you really think that you have far to meet?

Believing in the magic noose

That trips the egg the golden goose

And with it you can never lose

While fairy tales steal the truth

I don’t let go hey

I don’t let loose

For the goose is flippin’ of the roof

And without its wings how can you be free?

(Chorus)

But I’m watching you but not like quite before

I will find you you’re the one I’ve been looking for

But when it’s over don’t say sorry any more

Instrumental

(Verse 3)

That ranger he just rides along

Protecting those that don’t belong

In the land that has no right or wrong

Time till you just load his gun

For killing outlaws one by one

Shooting in-laws just for fun

While the jungle laws are on the run

Step out before you get stepped on

Sadists wear their war paint on

Afraid if you’re in the dark to long

Cause you the jungle is no place for the meek

You say life is absurdity carnival for melodies

You hide the big time bitterly

You set the stage so faithfully

You’re hocker for more mystery

While marching so religiously

Is the army that has paid to see

The choir boy of reality

Laugh at all authority

And you smile oh so cynically

Sole possessor of his key

And it’s sad to know that’s all you’ll ever be

And you said keep on the sunny side

That life is just a rainbow ride

Silver studded surfboard glide

On the whinnin’ waves keep your hide

Don’t you hit the moon when you fly to wide

It’ll bring to you down below the tide

It’s where no one keeps their tears inside

The waters can hide them if you cry

For in the waves there are no mysteries

(Chorus)

I’m watching you but not like quite before

I will find you you’re the one I’ve been looking for

But when it’s over don’t say sorry any more
