Glass Target

Lyrics

The Fly
Okay. I was walking down the street one night
and it was late and it was dark and suddenly my mind was surged with a chill.
A memory. A thought. A revelation.
You see I remembered the first time I ever killed a Fly.
It may sound funny but, at the time I was three or four and I was petrified and I was running and I was sweating and my Mother laughed. But you see, somehow, , so
me way I knew it was wrong.
----
CHORUS:
Oh I need to know. I need to know. I need to know.
And I wanna go back. And, I wanna go back. And, I wanna go back.
My mind can go. My mind can go. My mind can go.
Where to be, where to be, it means to grow.
Where to be it means to grow.
----
And that night, in the dark. Another thought. Something very important. Something very , very
important.
You see I realized that it’s not getting old at all that distresses people.
It has nothing, nothing to do with death.
But you know what it is...
All it is, is getting further and further away from that pure state of mind.
(REPEAT CHORUS).
So please listen. Please listen. (INSTRUMENTAL BREAK)
Father. Father please I I, don’t want to die. In an American Hospital. Father. Fat
her!
(REPEAT CHORUS)
So you can do it. And I can do it. And we can do it, we can do it.
But we all have one problem,
one obstacle.
You see we’re getting further, and further and further and further
and further away!
