Watchin It Go

[Intro] [Verse] Me it seems I’m spendin’ most of my time Spendin’ ten cents while I’m makin’ a dime Tryin’ to make sense out of life’s mixed up rhyme Meantime I’m watchin’ it go The butterfly spins in his little cocoon Thinkin’ of songs that he’ll be singing soon So few will listen to the butterfly’s tune   Me I’m just watchin’ it go [Chorus] Watchin’ it go Wantin’ to know Where do you go when you’ve been [Verse] Poor Cinderella she’s bowin’ her head Tellin’ some stranger what a hard life’s she’s led Glass slipper’s sound asleep under the bed   Sadly I’m watchin’ her go Prince Charming dressed in disarmin’ disguise Flashin’ his charms as he’s blindin’ her eyes Mornin’ will hear ’em say their sunshine goodbyes Me I’ve seen a few of them go [Chorus] Watchin’ it go Wantin’ to know Where do you go when you’ve been [Verse] Me like so many I’ve tried so many things Walkin’ on crutches and callin’ them wings Wonderin’ who’s pullin’ the puppeteer strings Me I’m just wantin’ to know Minds too confined they keep wantin’ to roam Lookin’ for a life that will leave them alone I hear ’em singin’ now they want to go home Knowin’ they never can go [Chorus] Watchin’ it go Wantin’ to know Where do you go when you’ve been Watchin’ it go Wantin’ to know Where do you go when you’ve been
