Paroles : Half a Century High (Live)
In the tube where I was born
I could have sworn
There was so much to see
There was so little to be
But I was free
World at my command
Through the dots I ran
Looking for a man
That looked like me
And now it can be told
I'm a quarter of a century old
But I'm a half a century wise
In the tube where I was raised
I was amazed
On the pictures I would lean
That went flashing on the screen
Oh, I was dazed
But then my eyes were made
Hypnotized insane
Buried in my brain
In a blinding blaze
And now it can bе told
I'm a quarter of a century old
But I'm a half a century wisе
In the tube where I was grown
I was alone
Laying on the floor
I locked the closet door
The sound was low
Ballgames on the street
Disappeared behind my feet
Out of breath my heart would beat
To see another show
And now it can be told
I'm a quarter of a century old
But I'm a half a century wise
In the tube where I was made
I was afraid
Spinning through the space
Another scene, another face
Another shade
Mirror of my mind
On electric wheels of wine
Living in the lines
That were displayed
And now it can be told
I'm a quarter of a century old
But I'm a half a century wise
In the tube where I was fed
I lost my head
I'd watch the lives they led
Watch them to the end
And then again
An open kind of laugh
I gave all the mind I had
And whenever I was sad
I had my friends
Yes, and now it can be told
I'm a quarter of a century old
But I'm a half a century wise
In the tube where I was killed
I was fulfilled
Such an easy way to win
Talking to my twin
No sign of sin
The sacrifice was small
Fascination was the fall
I was extended by the wall
That held me in
Oh, and now it can be told
I'm a quarter of a century old
But I'm a half a century wise
In the tube where I was born
I could have sworn
There was so much to see
There was so little to be
But I was free
World at my command
Through the dots I ran
Looking for a man
That looked like me
And now it can be told
I'm a quarter of a century old
But I'm a half a century wise
I could have sworn
There was so much to see
There was so little to be
But I was free
World at my command
Through the dots I ran
Looking for a man
That looked like me
And now it can be told
I'm a quarter of a century old
But I'm a half a century wise
In the tube where I was raised

On the pictures I would lean
That went flashing on the screen
Oh, I was dazed
