Текст пісні
What a beautiful day to open windows
Let the sunlight in
While the poet rides his bike in circles
Watch the madness win
Oh the coffee drinkers pretend
They can't hear a thing
(But he says)
"I've been thinking about a piece of pavement"
"I've been thinking, I've been thinking about the man"
(And he says)
"What if a broke clock's still right twice a day
What if I am?"
What if I'm broke and broken
Stop making sense
What if my mad turns madness
I must confess
Anyone can be like you
Only different colored truths
Squeaky wheels turn 'round and 'round
The cat lays in the sun
Thoughts are spinning making sound
Of logic come undone
And the boy with the boxes shouts "shut up"
Over the birds and the man gone mad
And he says, "We're all just trying to try our luck
Don't make me look at something sad"
What if I'm broke and broken
Stop making sense
What if my mad turns madness
I must confess
Anyone can be like you
Only different colored truths
The manic poets' quiet now
The trash man does his job
He's picking up the mess we've made
So we won't have to smell the rot
So close the windows, turn the other cheek
Look away, don't want to see you freak
Anyone can be like you
Only different colored truths
Anyone can be like you
Only different colored truths
Anyone can be like you
If you want the ugly technicolored truth
