Some People Ride The Wave

Some people ride the wave of generosity Some people ride the wave of mediocrity Me, I ride the wave of never gonna drown Oh, just fooling around Now I gots the balloons and you, you gots the mud And me I gots the snail and you gots the stuff Well, you got so much more than I figure was in store Oh, I ain't foolin' no more Now some people ride the cat when asleep or when awake Some people ride a cat for riding a cat's sake Me, I ride this cat 'cause it's claws have got my eyes I'll get 'em back in a few more tries, oh I'll get 'em back in a few more tries Some people ride the books that tenderize their names Some people ride the books that bastardize our claims Me, I ride the book that's sifting in the sand Oh, some day I'll understand, oh, some day I'll understand Some people ride the songs that stay inside our souls Some people ride the songs that really ain't songs at all Me, I ride the song that ends right when it starts They'll split before they part, oh, they'll split before they part
