I never thought there were corners in time Till I was told to stand in one One straight line head on into the other Maybe standing in the corner looks like where it's got to come.
But I pretend one wall is the past and one is the future And I just stand here like the present looking for a Good place to run Every fish that swims upstream now that's a catch Because the full mouth never wants to stop cooking.
The map may be flat, the globe may be patched But the long line keeps right on hooking Circles in the ring of fire, where do you go On a night that is clear and warm? Oh where do you go?
I never thought there were corners in time Till I was told to stand in one I've heard circles moving right through corners And they don't even know they've been around and around before Ringing, ringing against each other on a singing chain Like a flying magnet hyperdrive has never seen any reason To remain the same.
Because I felt it I believe it Because there are things I've never seen that I believe So I'm going to place my face right in the triangle door Till I can move right on through instead of just standing here Looking at the floor.
And it rains again tonight, I can think light years ahead Or I could put myself back a thousand years ago As if I'd always been here before or as if I am still to be born I'm a slow loser, but I'm a fast learner That much I know Anyone can go That much I know Anyone can go That much I know Anyone can go.
