Well, the moths have been fed and the pirates pirated
Are things I left undone
As every day rolls on, I lose them
At least your pressure to confusion

Was it something I read that's been doing in my head?
What gives me palpitations?
The implication of dilution
Or just a problem of execution

So baby, claim that I'm not playing a role, well, maybe I'll play for someone else, sir
Your babies claim that it's a game for gold, well, that's not the same as a claim for wealth, sir
That's not wealth, sir
And at the moment I'm trying to just find my beginner's mind

When the call finally came, I was reading up on quick claims
So I had to think about it
As I begun to doubt it mattered
No, I'm so sick of feeling battered

'Cause we're not trying to change when you tell me that I change
And when I try not to change
Well, then you tell me that I don't change
And there's not much I can change about that, sir

So baby, blame it on what you've been told, go blow that blame around pell mell, sir
If I'm ashamed of what I bought or sold, I've got no one to blame but myself, sir
I'm to blame for my own bad health, sir
And at the moment I'm trying to just find my beginner's mind

So to another year down the road, and that's not something I could help, sir
But if you tell me that I'm getting old, you'd better take a good look at yourself, sir
Yeah, take a look at yourself, sir
'Cause at the moment I'm trying to just find some beginner's mind
