Testo Philosophy - Ben Folds Five
Testo della canzone Philosophy (Ben Folds Five), tratta dall'album The Best Imitation of Myself: A Retrospective
Won't you look up at the skyline
At the mortar, block, and glass
And check out the reflections in my eyes?
You see, they always used to be there
Even when this all was grass
And I sang and danced about a high-rise
And you were laughing at my helmet hat
Laughing at my torch
Go ahead, you can laugh all you want
I got my philosophy
(Keeps my feet on the ground)
And I trust it like the ground
That's why my philosophy (My phil-)
Keeps me walking when I'm falling down (-osophy)
I see that there is evil
And I know that there is good
And the in-betweens, I never understood
Won't you look at me? I'm crazy
But I get the job done
Yeah, I'm crazy, but I get the job done
I say go ahead, you can laugh all you want
But I got my philosophy
(Keeps my feet on the ground)
And I trust it like the ground
That's why my philosophy (My phil-)
It keeps me walking when I'm falling down (-osophy)
I pushed you 'cause I loved you guys
I didn't realize you weren't having fun
And I dragged you up the stairs, I told you to fly
You were flapping your arms, you started to cry
You were too high, no, too high
Now you take this all for granted
You take the mortar, block, and glass
And you forget the speech that moved the stone
But it's really not that you can't see the forest for the trees
You've never been out in the woods alone
So you can laugh all you want to
I've got my philosophy
(It keeps my feet on the ground)
And I love you, you're my friend
But you got no philosophy (My phil-)
Now it's time for this song to end (-osophy)
