Be Yourself (Nash) How does it feel When life doesn't seem real And you're floating about on your own Your life seems uncertain So you draw the curtain Pretending there's nobody home Don't theorize Look in your eyes They can't tell lies Though you may disguise what you see The mirror is free We once had a savior But by our behavior The one that was worth it is gone Song birds are talking And runners are walking A prodigal son's coming home Don't theorize Look in his eyes They won't tell lies But if he defies what you see He'll give you a key Be yourself Be yourself Be yourself We needed a tutor So built a computer And programmed ourselves not to see The truth and the lying The dead and the dying A silent majority Don't theorize Look in their eyes Are they telling lies The ones that they learn on TV What a way to be free Be yourself Be yourself Then you can free yourself Free yourself See yourself Then you can see yourself Come on and see yourself Graham Nash - Songs for beginners 1971 |
