Joke With Fate

So many times, I’ve wondered all alone
Never knowing where I’ll end up next
Maybe one day, I’ll feel I’ll belong
Another fish caught in the net
Probably not, I know where that ends
Another meal for another lunch
Maybe I’m wrong, it’s a brand new trend
What you’d call a shiny, flashy crutch
No, not for me, I’ll stand on my own
Or at least you can’t fault me for trying
What do you expect, the same old tune
A repetitive stake relying
What will it be, still figuring it out
Call me a crazy hatter
Sometimes too strong, others too light
Better than your average batter
If you like it, we’ll throw off the yoke
Continue on with the funny
If you don’t, could’ve been the joke
Too much booze from the honey
It’s no worries, I’ve got to go
Life’s too short for the weight
Maybe again, if the dice are thrown
Call it a joke with fate
What shape are you, what type of hue
Why do you even bother
Wouldn’t you please just for a few
Give it a try to wonder
No big deal, a dried up seal
Just have to wait a bit longer
Wouldn’t be so bad, but after a few years
Haven’t seen you getting stronger
Maybe it’s me, wouldn’t be the first
Time I’ve crashed and burned
After awhile, feel like a curse
Wonder if I’ll ever learn
No chance in hell, following the fool
To places beyond comparing
No types of rules, a tragedy soon
Food for the joke preparing
If you like it, we’ll throw off the yoke
Continue on with the funny
If you don’t, could’ve been the joke
Too much booze from the honey
It’s no worries, I’ve got to go
Life’s too short for the weight
Maybe again, if the dice are thrown
Call it a joke with fate
Looking around, at the big huge world
Seeing the land and the cities
Like a slide so many are hurled
Never knowing where they’re sitting
Such a big pile, all stacked up
A truckload of illusions
Fences so high, signs saying stop
Don’t disturb confusion
Back to the island, seeing ships passing by
Lighting a signal fire
Close it up, dig a hole, back to try
Another tune for the crier
Over and over, a hundred times and more
After awhile what’s the point
Hard to argue with anyone bored
Finding a pub or a joint
If you like it, we’ll throw off the yoke
Continue on with the funny
If you don’t, could’ve been the joke
Too much booze from the honey
It’s no worries, I’ve got to go
Life’s too short for the weight
Maybe again, if the dice are thrown
Call it a joke with fate
Got a new idea, never taking long
Just a taste of the unknown
Give it a shot, if not only wrong
Never know till it’s thrown
So says the fool, can’t be told what to do
All kinds of time on his hands
Tripping and flipping, sitting time too
Some even call it a dance
End of the day, what‘s that you say
How about another round
I wish I could play, but gotta be on my way
Getting on before getting bound
Such a crazy world, so full of blues
Why can’t we all lighten up
Don’t be confused, a mistake’s not a noose
Ignoring the signs saying stop
If you like it, we’ll throw off the yoke
Continue on with the funny
If you don’t, could’ve been the joke
Too much booze from the honey
It’s no worries, I’ve got to go
Life’s too short for the weight
Maybe again, if the dice are thrown
Call it a joke with fate
