Lyrics

The Architect

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

What is the architect doing?

(I think he is by the riverside)

What is he thinking out there?

(He is committing egocide)

Now isn't that a strange thing?

(Well to him it feels just)

Well, we guess a person's gotta do

(What a person feels he must)

He said

I won't throw myself from the pier

I'm gonna go home and shut up for a year

And when that year is over I'll reappear

And have a solution

I've reason to believe that what I find

Is gonna change the face of human kind

And all these years before well I was blind

That's my conclusion

Cause I'm the architect

(Well, baby, it's touch and go)

Now the man has understood

That outer space is overrated

About all the problems on this earth we should

Worry now to solve them later

And so he's brooding and alluding on a perfect design

He thinks that working on behalf of himself is a crime

He ﬂashes out by the water, a view so divine

He's the architect of his own fate, a man in his prime

He said

I won't throw myself from the pier

I'm gonna go home and shut up for a year

And when that year is over I'll reappear

And have a solution

I've reason to believe that what I find

Is gonna change the face of human kind

And all these years before well I was blind

That's my conclusion

Cause I'm the architect

(Well, baby, it's touch and go)

(Don't get up, don't get up I said)

(Don't get up, don't get up I said)

And so he drew [himself] a pentagon

Thinking it through a geodesic dome

From the coast of Tahiti, to the hills of Rome

Step aside cause the man will take the Nobel prize home

He said

I won't throw myself from the pier

I'm gonna go home and shut up for a year

And when that year is over I'll reappear

And have a solution

I've reason to believe that what I find

Is gonna change the face of human kind

And all these years before well I was blind

That's my conclusion

Cause I'm the architect

Now if these aspirations bother you

Well you are just you, you don't have a clue

I'm sticking to the plan I will see it through

Let there be no confusion

Cause I'm the architect
