randy rice - the continuing story of a square peg in a round hole lyrics

part 1: the ballad of uthage

far off on a sacred cloud
where the palace lies with golden shrouds
a silent lady with golden hair
harp in hand, mounts the chair
and sings the story of uthage
who had one life like you and me
who sailed off on a lonely cruise
on a ship of truth without a crew
he said it was an experiment
to see how far he could be sent
sail on, uthage, in the doubting, faithless sea
and tell the world what it ought to be
eat your heart out, richard harris

part 2: i think it’s time for me to get out of here

mothеr, father, family, you’ve all done so much for mе
i know you’re trying hard to see why i now have to go
a new life experience is pushing childhood to the past tense
and i know it’s a great expense but a price i have to pay
and you know that i’d be kidding if i told you that my mind was clear
i know my life betrays your reason
but i think it’s time for me to get out of here
i’ve examined all the resolutions
and i’ve come up with no solutions
so i think it’s time for revolution to make my mind clear
and i know that parting can be only sad
like death or losing a toy you once had
but i think it’s time for me to get out of here

sweet little friend of mine, you’re the only love i’ve ever had
even if you weren’t, you’d be as much on my mind
and i’ve thought and think i need you but i know that can’t be true
’cause i’ve lost a lot of things before, i’ve always made it through
i can feel you’re trying to make decisions and i’m only causing tears
and even though it’s what i never wanted to envision
i guess it’s time for me to get out of here

i’ve examined all the resolutions
and i’ve come up with no solutions
so i think it’s time for revolution to make my mind clear
and i know that parting can be only sad
like death or losing a toy you once had
but i think it’s time for me to get out of here

i have no thoughts of peace today, no clever words of wit to say
and all the years spent to get this way seem hardly worth the while
and if i was sure there was a god, i’d cry and shout his name out loud
and beg him to come down from his cloud and tell me what to do
but it seems that life is such a fight uphill to reach what you think is right
and all the time, trying not to lose sight of something you’ve never seen
and i’ve examined all the resolutions
and i’ve come up with one solution
so i think it’s time for a revolution to make my mind clear
and i know that parting can be only sad like death

part 3: footnote to the preceding nineteen songs, and is it really necessary

i hold my dreams in a crystal ball
i’ll give it to you, don’t let it fall
it’s been so hard to keep the crystal clear
as for my life, it’s yours to take
its worth lies within the faith
that my dreams will stay when my life has disappeared

part 4: i hope i always see you smiling

it’s nice to see you by my place again
it’s nice to see that smile on your face, my friend
though life’s bewilderments and sorrows
will leave you looking toward tomorrow
the time is bound to come for crying again
but i hope i always leave you smiling, my friend

part 5: my song

don’t try to tie me to the ground
or lay me down my life
don’t ask me where i am or bound
don’t fill my mind with why
the time is right to live or die
and not to play along
so leave me while i take the sky
just let me sing my song

an antelope, my dear
some prairie dogs, a sparrow
the feeling freedom’s near
a rumbling herd of buffalo

the time is right to live or die
and not to play along
so leave me while i take the sky
just let me sing my song
ca
