I never knew what a man was supposed to be
I never wanted the responsibility
I still remember what they tried to make of me
They used to wonder why they couldn't get through to me
Cause all that I had was this music, a coming to me
And all that I had was this rhythm, running through me
I took a tip from the man from the ministry
he said, "my son, better work in the factory"
well there were days, I can tell you quite honestly
I saw myself ending up in the military
so lucky to have all this music, coming to me
I'm lucky to have all this rhythm, running through me
I'm watching the movie go down, around, about me
I'm watching the merry go round, go down, about me
I said lovers, you're needed in the garden
cause there's a lot of crazy people
who've forgotten where their heart is
and they don't give a damn,
about hurting those flowers and trees
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, bon bon, sailing on and on
sometimes I wonder where my life is taking me
sometimes I wonder what they all expect of me
well there are days I can tell you quite honestly
I see myself ending up in the monastery
cause all that I have is this music a coming to me
and all that I have is this rhythm, a running through me
I'm watching the move go down around about me
I'm watching the merry go round, go down about me
I said lovers, you're needed in the garden
cause there's a lot of crazy people
who've forgotten where the heart is
and they don't give a damn
about hurting the small child in me
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, bon bon, sailing on and on
c'est la bon, sailing on and on
