I'm sad for those whose eyes are closed
 Can't see further than the end of the nose
 Always caught, it seems to me,
 Between the devil and the deep blue sea

And always something bars the way
 Oh you know that it's [bad word]  Forced to throw our dreams away
 They [bad word] [bad word] anyway

Well sometimes they do
 Some dreams can
 Some dreams do

And you can try
 Sacrifice
 Still friendships die

Can't justify
 The sea of tears that I've cried
 To the Cannabis Kid
 It's really not important at all
 No no no no

I'm sad for those whose hearts are froze
 With every passing day his misery grows
 Always caught, it seems to me,
 Between  and slavery

And like the fools who fail to see
 From the top of the pole
 And sway between the boring scene
 And a fear of the dole

It was hard, hard loving you
 It's a hard, hard thing to do

But it's a crime
 To murder time
 You save yours
 I'll save mine

I can't stay around
 And watch my love for you drown
 While all those clowns 
 Slowly drag us down

I know life's joys so hopelessly few You know that you were
 To mention Someone special
 I know life's joys so hopelessly few Don't you know that you are
 Somebody special
 And now we all helplessly viewing the tension
 I know life's joys so pitifully few

You cannot learn
 The secrets I have learned
 You're much too cool
 There's no return
 When Mad Jack starts to burn
 His way through you
 And he will 
 He will

You don't own me <fool?>
 I don't own you
 You don't owe me
 I don't owe you
