The Trip Songtext
von Jackie Cohen

I thought you were a trip worth taking
Entranced by your unsympathetic view

But I missed the moving target
I missed the moving target
I took too long to remember what to do
And I wished on several stars that said they know you

I waited for you in Arcadia
Convinced I′d find you playing Pan's flute

But I missed the moving target
I missed the moving target
I took too long to remember that I don′t owe you


And you showed up late and only stayed one afternoon

And I'd cut you a break, but mercy doesn't look that good on you

And you slicked too many sailors
You tricked too many travelers
You kissed too many strangers
You skipped too many chapters
You picked this life of danger
You picked this life of danger
You picked this life
You picked this life

And if I′d known what I have only just found
I′d have stayed away, and that's where I′m staying now
