Some Wild Going Outward

                                  Like a dog

Who's always losing

All he had

He's wandering in an older house it lived in

Some wild going outward

Into bouquets of days

He's out going wild now

He's going out wild



Someone wades into the river

In another someone's daytime

I'm going fishing for Uncle Jimmy

On another someone's dime

We'll just sit around thinking

Waiting for a thing to say

We get no sense of adventure

We just wait it all away



So nice of you to notice

They always like it when you bring

No one expected to know this

Since none of us have heard a thing



If I were you I'd be more careful

You never know who's listening

They seen you here or there on Sundays

They can't wait to hear you sing

They'll tell you you could play it safer

Could choose a job less burdening



But you know it's hot when you are warm

It's hot when you're cold

It's hot

It's fine if you know

It's alright if you know nothing's wrong

Don't turn on yourself

'Cause you got no reason to take the pain

A memory can't serve you well

If you always look at it the same way



It's hot when you are warm

It's hot when you're cold

It's hot

It's fine if you know

It's alright if you know nothing's wrong

Don't turn on yourself

'Cause you got no reason to take the pain

A memory can't serve you well

If you always look at it the same way



It's hot when you are warm

It's hot when you're cold

It's hot

It's fine if you know

It's alright if you know nothing's wrong

Don't turn on yourself

'Cause you got no reason to take the blame

A memory can't serve you well

If you always look at it the same way
