Letra de Thinking Allowed

My mind was a timebomb That was set to explode So I packed up my cares Into the sunset I rode A path to hell that's paved With good intentions. Well I guess you and I Will never see eye to eye But if there's one thing I'll be Glad to know when I die It's that I never entertained your 'Can't Conventions.' Two men gaze from behind Their prison bars One man sees dirt The other sees stars I'm just thinking aloud Isn't thinking allowed? Just let your mind wander It may never come back Set off on a new train of thought On life's track. I'm just thinking aloud Isn't thinking allowed? Why is nobody thinking? How can you call me a failure Or a social defective When to find your own mind You'd need a private detective? I'm not a statistic or A regular family man. I don't give a damn about public relations I'll never live up to Your great expectations You can take or leave me Just the way I am. Your straight jacket emotions Only stifle and kill The spirit within us all I call free will. I'm just thinking aloud Isn't thinking allowed? Two men gaze from behind Their prison bars One man sees dirt The other sees stars. I'm just thinking aloud Isn't thinking allowed?
