The Reflex

You've gone too far this time
But I'm dancing on the valentine
I tell you somebody's fooling around
With my chances on the dangerline
But I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand
So why don't you use it, try not to bruise it
Buy time don't lose it
The reflex is an only child, and he's waiting in the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, well isn't that bizarre
Well, every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark
I'm on a ride, and I want to get off
But they won't slow down the roundabout
I sold the Renoir and the TV set
Don't want to be around when this gets out
But I'll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand
So why don't you use it, try not to bruise it
Buy time don't lose it
The reflex is an only child, and he's waiting in the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, well isn't that bizarre
Well, every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark
So why don't you use it, try not to bruise it
Buy time don't lose it
The fucking reflex what a game he's hiding all the cards
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, well isn't that bizarre
Well, every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark
The reflex what a game he's hiding all the cards
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
Just watching over lucky clover, isn't that bizarre
'Cause every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark
