Action Figure

I heard a rumor that I'm sad

Or at least that I feel bad

Whoever said that doesn't know

I'm pretty sure that I don't know

And if a case was made for this

Could it be something that we missed

Let's let the cat out of the bag

Let's let the neighborhood go bad

It take some time but there you go

It takes a lot of guts to show

The silly side of who we are

As if we'd ever go that far

So we can put the watch away

And we can throw away the cane

And we can walk through God's own will

Because he's crying, crying still today

What are the odds that you are right?

What will we have to eat tonight?

What if I told you it's okay

To be my action figure?

I've swatted bugs all afternoon

I've swallowed beer like a cartoon

And if old Waylon hung the moon

Will we be singing with him soon?

And I will learn to look away

When there are thing I cannot bear

Perhaps you'll sing a different tune

Perhaps we'll learn to tell the difference

And there are people that I know

Who learn to live within their limits

And we are lucky to be so
