Listen to the metronome
It talks more truth than you
Now I'm marking time waiting by the phone
Waiting to find out what you're going to do
Are you going to come to your senses
Knock kneed and climbing fences
Trying to get over yourself
Trying to get to that place where you can love somebody else
There's a reason why you're crazy about me
There's a reason, I know
There's a reason why you're crazy about me
And if you don't know, well, you better go
Where the sun will shine on your insight
And the echo will say it's all right
It's all right, all right, all right
The echo says it's all right
Lying won't do any good
Coming into town won't get you out of the woods
Running away, yeah, running away
I can't recommend it, but who am I to say
Listen to the parlor clock
It's been right most of the day
Now you're wasting time rehearsing your talk
Worrying about what you're going to say
