fight test

flaming lips şarkısı

i thought i was smart - i thought i was right
i thought it better not to fight - i thought there was a
virtue in always being cool - so when it came time to
fight i thought i’ll just step aside and that time would
prove you wrong and that you would be the fool -

i don’t know where the sun beams end and the star
light begins it’s all a mystery

oh to fight is to defend if it’s not
now than tell me when would be the time that you would stand up
and be a man - for to lose i could accept but to surrender
i just wept and regretted this moment - oh that i - i
was the fool

i don’t know where the sun beams end and the star
light begins it’s all a mystery
and i don’t know how a man decides what right for his
own life - it’s all a mystery

cause i’m a man not a boy and there are things
you can’t avoid you have to face them when you’re not prepared
to face them -
if i could i would but you’re with him now it’d do no good
i should have fought him but instead i let him - i let
him take it -

i don’t know where the sun beams end and the star
light begins it’s all a mystery
and i don’t know how a man decides what right for his
own life - it’s all a mystery.
