Sittin' On My Park Bench

No money in my pocket
And no place to go
Sitting on this park bench
Just watching the show
The sun is hanging out with his friend the sky
I ain't got no job
But I'm still getting by
You'd think that I'd have nothing to do
But the world's a better television than you knew
It's a never ending tale
Filled with cartoon characters that are real
And it's all right here

Sitting on my park bench
Just watching to see
What the world would come up with today for me
Will it be laughter or tears
Or something that will make me swear
That I've been there

Ooh, there's that woman again
She looks like she has lived five hundred lives
People try not to stare
And make themselves aware
Of her world that has no walls to shelter her
Body and her mind
As it goes kicking and screaming into another realm
Filled with thunderstorms of unreality
Never knowing if she's four or seventeen
Horrifying scenes
Hope it's not me

Sitting on my park bench
Just watching to see
What the world would come up with today for me
Will it be laughter or tears
Or something that will make me swear
That I've been there

Ah, I like children
But their parents look like they've got a lot of tension
Is it the mortgage or is it bills
Has he lost his job, is she taking pills
I guess life will do with you as it will
Maybe if you just dropped out of society
There would be less insanity
Who's more crazy, them or me?

Sitting on my park bench
Just watching to see
What the world would come up with today for me
Will it be laughter or tears
Or something that will make me swear
That I've been there

Sitting on my park bench
Just watching to see
What the world would come up with today for me
Will it be laughter or tears
Or something that will make me swear
That I've been there, yeah

Sitting on my park bench
Just watching to see
What the world would come up with today for me
Will it be laughter or tears
Or something that will make me swear
That I've been there
