Bleeding Obvious
It started off so easy and now it’s clear as mud
Your life is complicated and I’d help you If I could
Time is slipping by you know and things are moving fast
You’ve got a long wait ahead my friend, if you save the best for last
It’s bleeding obvious
What a thing to say
Don’t mind the rest of us
Have it your own way
You raise your voice to make your point and I’m trying to get some sleep
I said man it’s all right by me, but you’re getting in way too deep
I got it all the first time round so turn it down, give it a rest
It’s not that complicated and I know what’s coming next
It’s all so obvious
You shouldn’t be surprised
But I find it curious
They don’t have it in your size
I have forgotten
Where we started
Because somewhere along the line,
The salient point departed
And parked itself
In a back street
In a lonely part of town
Mmmm
It was lost in the fog of time
You started so well
Then went off on a trip around the world
Everywhere under the sun
If you ever return
We’ll see if you learned
That it all adds up to one
I know you think I’m stupid but you got to give me time
I’m sitting with my hand up but you send me to the back of the line
I hear you but it’s all too much for the likes of little old me
You say this and that and who knows what, it’s so hard to believe
It’s bleeding obvious
If what you’re trying to say’s
The same as all the rest of us
In quite another way
