You Don't Have To Be A Scientist To Do Experiments On Your Own Heart
You don't have to be a scientist To do experiments You don't have to be a scientist To do experiments You don't have to be a scientist To do experiments On your own heart I had no place to put myself But I had lots of time I had no place to put myself But I had lots of time I had no place to put myself But I had lots of time So I threw out some past And made room for more future Now I'm standing on the scene Between my memories and dreams Balanced on the scene Between my memories and dreams Floating down the stream Between my memories and dreams And I see a better person Waiting his turn to be me SongtexteAnd you don't have to be a scientist To do experiments You don't have to be a scientist To do experiments You don't have to be a scientist To do experiments On your own heart Now I'm running down the runway In between gigantic numbers I'm running down the runway In between gigantic numbers I'm running down the runway In between gigantic numbers With my knapsack And a zero for a halo And my halo's got a hole in it So it don't keep me dry My halo's got a hole in it So it don't keep me dry My halo's got a hole in it So it don't keep me dry But it's ok 'cause My brain is my heart's umbrella You don't have to be a scientist To do experiments You don't have to be a scientist To do experiments You don't have to be a scientist To do experiments On your own heart I had a girl I had to leave But I saw her face upon my sleeve I had a girl I had to leave But I saw her face upon my sleeve I had a girl I had to leave But I saw her face upon my sleeve It kept talking So I put it in the laundry And as it spun and spun It tried to ask me what I'd done And as it spun and spun It tried to ask me what I'd done And as it spun and spun It tried to ask me what I'd done But I was gone On down the road out to the lane รข??Cause you think patience is a virtue And what you don't know can't hurt you And that events can change and shape us More than we can change ourselves And that conscious attempt at growth is stupid And I should just relax and be myself And even think it's arrogant to cry But you don't have to be a scientist To do experiments You don't have to be a scientist To do experiments You don't have to be a scientist To do experiments On your own heart Aus Songtexte Mania
