Why Must I Always Explain? - Van Morrison (范·莫里森)

Have to toe the line I've got to make the most

Spent all the years going from pillar to post

Now I'm standing on the outside and I'm waitin' in the rain

Tell me why must I always explain

Bared my soul to the crowd eh but oh what the cost

Most of them laughed out loud like nothing's been lost

There were hypocrites and parasites and people that drain

Tell me why must I always explain

Why why must I always explain

Over and over over again

It's just a job you know and it's no sweet lorraine

Tell me why must I always explain alright

Well I get up in the morning and I get my brief

I go out and stare at the world in complete disbelief

It's not righteous indignation that makes me complain

It's the fact that I always have to explain

I can't be everywhere at once there's always somebody to see

And I never turned out to be the person that you wanted me to be

And I tell you who I am time and time and time again

Tell me why must I always explain

Well it's out on the highway and it's on with the show

Always telling people things they're too lazy to know

It can make you crazy yeah it can drive you insane

Tell me why must I always explain
