I know I owe you a better time
Then the way that I've been
But something's messing with my mind
And it's not giving in
They say that I should want to be
A man who leads us all
But every time I look I see
Another leader fall.
So I'm gonna sit in a green field
And fly a big red kite I'm gonna
Send my mind up the string and I'm
gonna get it right.
They say that I should want to have
A big bank account
What Uncle Sam don't take from me
Man I don't need to count.
They say that I should want to stand
For what I don't believe
I'm sitting thinking to myself
What kind of man could leave.
Then the way that I've been
But something's messing with my mind
And it's not giving in
They say that I should want to be
A man who leads us all
But every time I look I see
Another leader fall.
So I'm gonna sit in a green field
And fly a big red kite I'm gonna
Send my mind up the string and I'm
gonna get it right.
They say that I should want to have
A big bank account
What Uncle Sam don't take from me
Man I don't need to count.
They say that I should want to stand
For what I don't believe
I'm sitting thinking to myself
What kind of man could leave.
