Younger men don't seem to need a purpose
They just stand and fight for anybody's cause
And older men see living as a circus The
ones who stand up for the longest need
applause
From the young ones who proclaim to have the
answers
To the questions no one ever asked before
They cheer in high parades but when it's over
They don't claim to know the answers anymore
It's a crazy world but I live here
And if you can hear me singing so do you
And I'm turning out my nightlight feeling satisfied
That there's nothing any one of us can do
No there's nothing any one of us can do
Babies cry all day sometimes for nothing
And I have cried all day for not much more
It ain't easy when you hate the things you're
loving And you wonder what or maybe who you're
loving for
Girls seem to think that they're the chosen
ones
Women choose to let well enough alone
And it's their business till you stick your nose in once
Then you've got yourself some problems of your own
It's a crazy world but I live here
And if you can hear me singing so do you
And I'm turning out my nightlight feeling satisfied
That there's nothing any one of us can do
No there's nothing any one of us can do
