Under seventy

When you're eighteen you gather
you've got seven lives
but you're lucky when at thirty
you can make your one life thrive

illusion is a luxury
when you're finally thru' with dreams
the straight and narrow or meditation
couldn't stop you and your schemes

      well we're under seventy
      and you know
      that there's wheels within wheels
      we're under seventy
      and you know, yeah you know how it feels

                under seventy
                pushing that hill
                when you're on the crest
                well you know
                here comes the bill

repeat first verse

when you're drifting everything's
shifting, shifting all around
then you're lucky to hold on to
perhaps one thing you may have found




1979.
