I don't know how I managed
But I skipped school
I couldn't endure it for a day.
I never lectured anyone,
So don't lecture me.
I grew up ahead of time,
I solved my problems myself
In one separate country.
I never bothered anyone with anything,
So don't bother me too.
When I was walking in the steep mountains
I wasn't above myself,
When I was going down to your valleys,
I wasn't below myself.
I know who I am, I hear the sound of the clouds,
I see the fish dancing in the distant river.
Tell me, why do you call either doctors, or cops
When I dance boogie-woogie on the ceiling?
I don't like when an order sounds like advice,
I don;t like to hear steps behind my back,
And I always go there where there is a sign "No Exit",
You shouldn't follow me.
When I roamed in the steep mountains
I wasn't above myself,
When I was going down to your valleys,
I wasn't below myself.
I know who I am, I hear the sound of the clouds,
I see the dances in the distant river.
Tell me, why do you call either doctors, or cops
When I dance boogie-woogie on the ceiling?
