Hey teacher you know I really think We were meant to read it between the lines That was no ambush that he called out there It's just that he was ahead of time, he couldn't keep silent Couldn't make a noise, couldn't reach out or say it Though it looked like he didn't win he did begin to sway it And if he could I'm sure he would have put it to the test But none-the-less he did his best And it's a whole lot more than I can say for all the rest
And everyday, everyday, everyday it's a long way to go Everyday, everyday, everyday it's a long way to go
Hey mister you know I really think you're too quick with your decisions You slash around the foreign ground and cut us into up & down divisions Well don't get me wrong I've been looking long & hard at your hand There's a mirror above that you didn't know of And I know what card you're gonna land Now you think that you caught me well you better think twice This game won't last long enough for me To take one roll from the loaded dice
And everyday, everyday it's a long way to go Everyday it's a long way to go It's a long way to go
Hey my friend you know I really think that it's time for us to travel It's such a pleasure watching keys to the treasure Slowly show themselves and unravel Well put us up behind the wheel let's see how far we'll roll We'll go around the bridge uptown so we don't have to pay the toll And we'll pick up the ones who are just like us While we're going round the bend And get closer and closer and further away From the start and to the end, my friend
And everyday, everyday it's a long way to go Everyday it's a long way to go It's a long way to go…
