BLUES TRAVELER lyrics : "His Own Ideas"

A man can't dance without the chance

Before you stands the man you see

But that man don't mean %#@! to me
Nothing more than a parody
Just peeking over a steep wall to see


And he's in love with his own ideas
Yeah, he's in love with his own ideas

Good and evil just a way to choose
And some he'll remember and some others he'll lose
He's in love with his own ideas


Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
Leap the candle, pull off your trick

He burns himself up upon the wick
The lesson learned, but it just won't stick


And he's in love with his own ideas
Yeah, he's in love with his own ideas
Good and evil just a way to choose

And some he'll remember and some others he'll lose
He's in love
With his own ideas


The cloth is sharp and it cuts both ways
Goes off whenever a banjo plays

The sinner rejoice as the wise man prays
Two groups of alley cats taking in strays
And each in love

With his own ideas

Before you beats a fearful heart

Fearful you'll tear it apart
But don't you rush and now don't you start
Cuz he's a little bit shy and a little bit smart


And he's in love with his own ideas
Yeah, he's in love with his own ideas

Good and evil just a way to choose
And some he'll remember and some others he'll lose
He's in love with his own ideas
