lyrics

Down in the tropic of cancer
No one will ever know
And I can see the setting suns
The spheres all pointing where I'm going

There's another one here and another one there
They're all out in the air
But ain't everyone looking for reason
Ain't everyone looking for facts
Just everybody looking for an answer
To where it's at

I can't dance
I can't jump, no no no
I gotta get people to do things for me
I can't sleep
I can't read, not at all
I can't think, 'cuz my thinking will bore me
There's more to this than we see on the surface
And I think that the truth is just a mystery
I'm in a world where everything's perfect
And I'm in a world where everyone's happy

In the neanderthal ocean
There's a tidal motion
Where both hemispheres reunite
And does the sea not gather up his brothers
As he calls to them in unison 'We tried to make it right'

There's another one here
And another one there
They come out of the blue
Ain't nobody wanna be anxious
Don't everybody wanna be free?
Yesterday is a good day to do what has to be done by me

And if tight then, baby
It's the right time to do it in the night
'Cuz it's life we're livin'
And if we fight, well maybe
There's just no more lovin' baby
Just close your eyes and give in

It's time forget about the fact we can't dance
