Tony Banks - A Curious Feeling текст песни

(its a curious feeling)

Its a curious feeling to see the edge receding,

It seems the more I know, the more I dont know,

Does this ever end?

If you listened to fanatics of the left or right,

Youd think theyd solve it all,

But they dont convince me.

Some statesmen, gurus, men of science and of philosophy,

All have an answer but they wont agree.

So if anybody tells you stories

Of how theyre gonna change your world

Be they the aga khan, the ex shah of iran,

Or the man from u.n.c.l.e.,

Say I dont believe you cos I know we dont need you.

In the name of religion or of any politician,

Im sure weve heard it all.

If races always ran to form they never would be run,

Where would be the fun?

And if ever a man could understand everything there was,

Hed have no reason to carry on.

So when anybody tells you stories

Of how theyre gonna change your world,

Be they the aga khan, the ex shah of iran,

Or the man from u.n.c.l.e.,

Say come with me then to the garden of eden.

Put back our bites from the apple of the tree of knowledge,

Be like the beasts again.
