C'est Le Bon

I never knew what a man was supposed to be I never wanted the responsibility I still remember what they tried to make of me They used to wonder what they couldn't get through to me, 'Cause all that I had as this music A-coming to me And all that I had was this rhythm A-running through me. I took a tip from the man in the ministry He said, "My son, better work in the factory" Well there were days I can tell you quite honestly I saw myself winding up in the military So lucky to have all this music A-coming to me I'm lucky to have all this rhythm A-running through me I'm watching the movie go down Around, about me I'm watching the merry-go-round Go down about me. I said, "Lovers, you're needed in the garden 'Cause there's a lot of crazy people Who've forgotten where their heart is And they don't give a damn About hurting those flowers and those trees." C'est bon, sailing on and on... Sometimes I wonder where my life is taking me Sometimes I wonder what they all expect of me Well there were days I can tell you quite honestly I saw myself winding up in the monastery 'Cause all that I have is this music A-coming to me And all that I have is this rhythm A-running through me I'm watching the movie go down Around, about me I'm watching the merry-go-round Go down about me. I said, "Lovers, you're needed in the garden 'Cause there's a lot of crazy people Who've forgotten where their heart is And they don't give a damn About hurting that small child in me."
