Artiste: Men Without Hats
Album: Rhythm of Youth
Song: The Great Ones Remember
Greatly overshadowed by the Safety Dance
Imagine yourself on the verge of committing
An act that you've always found silly or strange
Imagine yourself on the edge of discovering
Lately things have not been going your way
Communication is hard to establish
When things like a state of mind get in the way
And people don't eat, they just think what you feed them, now
The horses with their blinders eating the hay
Silently watching yourself in the mirror
Wondering if somebody else is to blame
Could it be somebody's in on your destiny?
Lately things have trouble looking the same
Could it be somebody else has the answer?
Could it be somebody's pulling my strings?
Say that is quite a nice dress that your wearing, now
Jump into another ring
Can you imagine what we put up with now
Generals and morons say we are still as proud
We coin the phrases like
We must when or die
All too confusing for me
Hello, goodbye
Don't forget that the great ones remember and please
Don't forget that we're nearing December
Isn't it funny the way it's connected
The print on your shirt and the one on the wall
Imagine if everyone had the same haircut
Wouldn't it be funny running it all?
Communication is hard to maintain
When the clothes that you're wearing
Are hurting my eyes
Things like improvement don't come overnight, boy
But at least you could try
Can you imagine what we put up with now
Generals and morons say we are still as proud
We coin the phrases like
We must win or die
All too confusing for me
Hello, goodbye
Don't forget that the great ones remember and please
Don't forget that we're nearing December and please
Don't forget that the great ones remember and please
Don't forget where you were toward December and please...
(ect., ect.)
May the Force be with you, Men Without Hats
