Tiny Ruins Reasonable Man
I went in search of a reasonable man
The one I'd read about in books, and I drew me up a plan
Said I'd like to meet him on a corner if I can
Then we could take either road, depending upon where we stand
I went in search of a reasonable man
And I thought oh, it must be lonely, to be the only
Voice of reason
The sky once so rosy, now I hear a rumbling sound
In silence drinking coffee, for a reasonable time
He said ‘you're looking pretty' and I said ‘you're looking at your prime
Contender for the future…will you be mine?'
But his straight-laced face, it all folded up
Took that ‘it's not so simple' line
And I said ‘oh, it must be lonely, to be the only
Voice of reason. The sky, once so rosy -
Now my world is crumbling down.'
And I said ‘we need more, reasonable man'
And I said ‘you're selling us short, reasonable man'
And I said ‘where's your heart, reasonable man'
‘Cause when the going gets tough, where are you going, reasonable man?'
