Pearl Jam - Off He Goes Lyrics
1, 2, 1, 2, 3...Know a man, his face seems pulled and tenseLike hes riding on a motorbike in the strongest windsSo I approach with tact, suggest that he should relaxBut hes always moving much too fastSaid hell see me on the flipsideOn this trip hes taken for a rideHes been taking too much on ...There he goes with his perfectly unkept clothesThere he goes...Hes yet to come back, but I see his pictureDoesnt look the same up on the rackWe go way backI wonder about his insidesIts like his thoughts are too big for his sizeHes been taken, where, I dont know?Off he goes with his perfectly unkept clothesAnd there he goes...And now I rub my eyes, for he has returned!Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burnedFor he still smiles, and hes still strongNothings changed, but the surrounding bullshitThat has grownAnd now hes home, and were laughing like we always didMy same old, same old friendUntil a quarter-to-tenI saw the strain creep inHe seemed distracted and I know just what is gonna happen nextBefore his first step, hes off again
