His Own Ideas (Popper John)

A man can't dance without the chance Before you stands the man you see But that man don't mean shit to me Nothing more than a parody Just peeking over a steep wall to see And he's in love with his own ideas Yeah, he's in love with his own ideas Good and evil just a way to choose And some he'll remember and some others he'll lose He's in love with his own ideas Jack be nimble, Jack be quick Leap the candle, pull off your trick He burns himself up upon the wick The lesson learned but it just won't stick And he's in love with his own ideas Yeah, he's in love with his own ideas Good and evil just a way to choose And some he'll remember and some others he'll lose He's in love with his own ideas The cloth is sharp and it cuts both ways Goes off whenever a banjo plays The sinner rejoice as the wise man prays Two groups of alley cats taking in strays And each in love with his own ideas Before you beats a fearful heart Fearful you'll tear it apart But don't you rush and now don't you start Cuz he's a little bit shy and a little bit smart And he's in love with his own ideas Yeah, he's in love with his own ideas Good and evil just a way to choose And some he'll remember and some others he'll lose He's in love with his own ideas He's in love He's in love He's in love
