Many Too Many

1. Many, too many have stood where I stand

Many more will stand here too

I think what I find strange is the way you built me up

Then knocked me down again

2. The part was fun but now it's over

Why can't I just leave the stage?

Maybe that's because you securely locked me up

Then threw away the key

R: Oh, mama, please would you find the key?

Oh, pretty mama, please won't you let me go free?

I thought I was lucky, I thought that I'd got it made

How could I be so blind?

3. You said goodbye on a corner

That I thought led to the straight

You set me on a firmly laid and simple course

And then removed the road

R: Oh, mama, please help me find my way

Oh, pretty mama, please lead me through the next day

I thought I was lucky, oh, I thought that I'd got it made

How could I be so blind?
