Mind of Man

Peter Sarstedt
Young people they're all studying
Old people they're just worrying
What can we do to be happy in this day and age
This is a world full of poses/closes/clothses?
And this is a time for unveiling
And coming to terms with our fears
I don't believe what I read
And I don't believe what I see
I place no trust in my memory
'Cause there are prophecies to follow
Many calories/galleries? to swallow
And words to lead the children down to glory
Oh, it's only a dream
A fantastic scheme
That's captured the mind of man
Oh, it's captured the mind of man
Now there's a certain way of being
And a way to disappear
But there's just your mind
Crystalize these things
So from the seeds/seats of our beginning
To the race that no-one's winning
There's no-one to say the ending of the story
Oh, it's only a dream
A fantastic scheme
Captured the mind of man
Oh, it's captured the mind of man
You take a mighty swing to the right
Take a mighty swing to the left
Oh, set your trail way down by the middle
You'll find a fascinating mystery
In every page of human history
There's always so many answers to the question
Well, it's only a dream
A fantastic scheme
Captured the mind of man
Oh, it's captured the mind of man
