You're stretching and a straining, and a bending too hard
All of the chickens have run from your yard
Alone in the doorway, a gun in your hand
And you better untangle your mind
You try not to listen to the children upstairs
Who laugh at you nervously sitting down there
The shiny blue metal lays cold in your lap
And you'd better untangle your mind
You worry the morning, you worry the night
You worry for something that's not yet in sight
Your worry is rotten, your head is on fire
And you'd better untangle your mind
Your engine is quiet, and you're sunk in the mud
Your wheels only spinning, you can't seem to hug
Your face hanging back, you have covered your eyes
And you'd better untangle your mind
Relax or you'll snap like a string in the strang
Without your umbrella, go out in the rain
Just look in the treetops, and let it come down
and try and untanle your mind
Don't think of tomorrow or even next hour
Taste only the sweet things, forget all the sour
It's getting too heavy, to sit in this chair
Without you untangle your mind.
