He went through life

Sometimes crying

Never trying

Sometimes crying

The books that he read and the TV said

Don't waste your time

He began to think his future

Lay in the hands of fate

He'd move this way

He'd move that way

Or just hesitate

It comes out the same

He wondered what was to blame

He travels light

No excess baggage

His religion saved him

But there was a price to pay

His friend could see it

In the way he stared that day

Life on over ride

Life on over ride
