LYRICS
I wouldn’t get caught-up in all of that
Tangled up in a knot
I’d rather not
No, I don’t really want to get caught-up in all of that
I hope to know when to let go of the millstone
(Do you have a millstone around your neck
What the heck?
Too aloof to take it off)
I don’t have to sit all high and mighty on my throne
If my ankle gets tangled up in the anchor’s chain
I’d rather refrain
From getting caught-up in all that
Rather stay a rocker than in Davey Jone’s Locker
No, I don’t really want to get caught-up in all of that
End up as some splat
I’m not into a tit-for-tat
No, I don’t really want to get caught-up in all of that
End up a splat
I have fears
Of a little loose clothing getting into the gears
Before I know what
I’m caught-up in all that
… I’ve the feelin’ it’s real beat to be mincemeat
I’d rather stay a rocker and keep the beat
Then, ending up being mincemeat
(What would my fans think at a meet and great?)
You know, this guy ain’t chopped liver!
I’ve got a life to live of being a giver
Thus, my reluctance to get caught-up in all that
In that hypocrite fat cat spat shat
(That’s it! The hypocrite fat cat spat shat… I don’t want to get caught-up in all that)
If it’s alright with you, I’d like to find out about gracefully “bowing out”
(Oh! That’s what that is — hypocrite fat cat spat shat. I don’t want to get caught-up in all that.)
