And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today the millions cry (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

Cry, baby, cry
Make your mother sigh
She's old enough to know better

I started out on Burgundy, but soon hit the harder stuff
Everybody said they'd stand behind me when the game got rough
Yea, but the joke was on me, there was nobody even at my bluff
I'm going back to New York City, I do believe I've had enough
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

And now I know
Spanish Harlem are not just pretty words to say
I thought I knew
But now I know that rose trees never grow
In New York City

I've seen all the movie stars
In their fancy cars and their limousines
Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens
But I know what I'm needing
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

We used to ride, baby
Ride around in limousines
We looked so fine, baby
You in white and me in green
Drinking and dancing
All inside a crazy dream
Well now, look at your face now, baby
Look at you and look at me

Drop your silver in my tambourine
Help a poor man fill a pretty dream
Give me pennies, I'll take anything
Now listen while I play
My green tambourine
Watch the jingle jangle start to shine
Reflections of the music that is mine
When you toss a coin, you'll hear it sing
Now listen while I play
My green tambourine


I can’t believe I remembered that tune
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

Now if I had been working like I should have
By tonight I could've saved the fare
But Lord I've gone, yes, and drunk up every penny
And it's a thousand miles from here to there

Maybe I didn't love you
Quite as often as I could have
And maybe I didn't treat you
Quite as good as I should have
If I made you feel second best
Girl I'm sorry I was blind
You were always on my mind
You were always on my mind
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

Georgia, Georgia
No peace I find
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind
Just an old sweet song
Keeps Georgia on my mind

River gonna take me
Sing me sweet and sleepy
Sing me sweet and sleepy
All the way back back home
It's a far gone lullaby
Sung many years ago
Mama, mama, many worlds I've come
Since I first left home
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

I'll see you again
When the stars
Fall from the sky
And the moon
Has turned red
Over One Tree Hill
We run like a river
Runs to the sea
We run like a river
To the sea

We can run but we can't hide from it
Of all possible worlds we only got one we gotta ride on it
Whatever we've done
We'll never get far from what we leave behind
Baby, we can run, run, run, but we can't hide
Oh no, we can't hide
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

I have a friend I've never seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Someone should call him and see
If he can come out
Try to lose the down that he's found

Dream, when you're feeling blue,
Dream, that's the thing to do.
Just watch the smoke rings rise in the air,
You'll find your share
Of memories there.

Oh, my life is changing everyday
In every possible way
And oh, my dreams
It's never quite as it seems
'Cause you're a dream to me
Dream to me

My life is changing in so many ways
I don't know who to trust anymore
There's a shadow running through my days
Like a beggar going from door to door
I was thinking that maybe I'd get a maid
Find a place nearby for her to stay
Just someone to keep my house clean
Fix my meals and go away
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott

I want to come home.
It's been so long since I've been away
And please, don't blame me 'cause I've tried
I'll be coming home soon to your love to stay

She was there in the meadow where the creek used to rise
Blinded by sleep and in need of a bed
I came in from the East with the sun in my eyes
I cursed her one time then I rode on ahead
She said, "Where ya been?" I said, "No place special"
She said, "You look different." I said, "Well, I guess"
She said, "You been gone." I said, "That's only natural"
She said, "You gonna stay?" I said, "If you want me to, yes"

Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Madman drummers bummers
Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps
As the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder
Feelin' kinda older
I tripped the merry-go-round
Dodging lions and a-wasting time
In memory of ChiefScott
