Party animal or a bird in a cage
mine is a double the spirit of the age
money for old rope, the coin spinning round
your time is up, your time is down
I could read a book, i could watch a film
i could spend a day perfectly still
a solitary ring on a link in a chain
we could look alike but we're not all tame
I want it, i want it all the same
but i'm learning on the way
i wanna remember all the colours and the sounds and the shades
but i'm learning on the way
There's someone here to freeze, it couldn't be
a lot of people tease that we were free
i fell off my chair, i flew into the air
but i didn't land, didn't land nowhere
I want it, i want it all the same
but i'll learn it on the way
i wanna remember all the colours and the sounds and the shades
but i'll learn it on the way
I don't care what they were doing before
i don't care what, they could do it again, again
i don't even care what they are doing here right now
but i'll learn it on the way
And the margin's so wide there's a line down the middle
straight down the middle a dividing line
never, never, never getting anything together
never getting anything together one time
I want it, i want it all the same
but i'll learn it on the way
i wanna remember all the colours and the sounds and the shades
but i'll learn it on the way
Learning on the way
