I just didn't know ...Hmmmm I left fifty kids standin' in line, they were whining, they were crying and their mothers they were screaming in hysterics and I swear I never heard such profanity I dropped my suit on the floor, they were trying to block the door They were calling her a whore They were driven to nativital insanity We drove away in her Mercedes Benz, dirty blond split ends in the breeze She said "I want to put you under my tree You're just a little gift from me to me" 'Cause I'm in no man's land Can't seem to find a real man You know I'm lookin' for a steel man She said I'm in no man's land You know I'm ready for a real good time I'd gladly pay you double overtime She had money all her life She wasn't lookin' to become my wife She said, "I hope you understand, I just want a nightful of man, Sonny" She didn't notice I was thin with a delicate chin Nor the softness of my skin, nor the scent of my other personalities She didn't see through my disguise - didn't see it in my eyes She was in for a surprise when she discovered my emotional plurality She said "Come and lay down on the floor with me It's warmer here by the fire" She didn't know that there was more of me She'd have to learn to love all four of me 'Cause I'm in no man's land I'm lookin' for the real me If only I could feel me You know I'm in no man's land Sometimes I gotta play me It's really hard to stay me Hey, I'm in no mans land I'm looking for the real me If only I could feel me You know I'm in no man's land Sometimes I gotta play me It's really hard to stay me Oh, I'm in no man's land I'm looking for the real me If only I could feel me ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5) Dyslexia (Cooper, Wagner, Shaw, Ezrin) 4:25 Sometimes my world goes upside down Sometimes I see things backwards When I go walking in town, can't get back home Someimes I see things right to left And I know that's not right at all But since I bumped into you, I bump into walls And no one knows what's wrong with me They think that I got dropsie Is this love?
