Sitting On The Fence
Sitting on the fence
a leg here, a leg there
sitting on the fence
alright with everyone
smiling in every direction
and always, always inside what is going on1
Sitting on the fence
a leg here, a leg there
sitting on the fence
observing the world
smiling in every direction
and always, always inside what is going on
Sitting on the fence
a leg here, a leg there
sitting on the fence
taking it easy2
smiling in every direction
and always, always inside what is going on
Sitting thinking on the fence
a look here, a peek there
reading a paper hearing the news every hour on the hour
wrapping himself in a screen of smoke
