Dog's Eye View

Prince's Favorite Son
Well it feels a little like a landscape And it sounds a lot like time passing by, As you watch through a window asking "When will I get mine?" The prince's favorite son Was left sitting on a car hood With a paper tiger That he used to play with And a picture of his father, Whose memory was a whisper That sang to him daily As he ran away It started out so simply Then it caught him in confusion As he pulled his head back And he looked around said "It takes so long just to get To where you're going, When you start out spinning And you can't fall down" Well, it feels a little like a landscape And it sounds a lot like time, Passing by, as you watch through Letras de cancionesA window asking "when, will I get mine?" With a dog's eye view, It's a world full of hydrants And passing feet you never ever Get the whole scene You read 429 books about a better world, But you wake up early And you still don't know what they mean Well I'm standing in America, And I'm swimming in this whirlpool My head's above, but there's water in my eyes It took 23 years just to get this stupid Wondering when will I get wise And it feels a little like a landscape It sounds a lot like time passing by As you watch through a window Asking "when, will I get mine?"
