UNCOMBINED

If you rely on what your senses tell you

You'll be let down, 'cause

Sometimes they deceive you

I sensed that you cared about me

But it was hallucinatory

I was in a euphoric state

What a mistake

CHORUS

Love is senseless as any other sense

It's a dangerous missile from which

There's no defense

You can't understand it 'cause you don't have the mind

You're better off uncombined

Than combined with a friend who betrays your frail trust

Combined with a love who soon becomes to someone else's lust

Combined with a priest who doesn't know what he believes

Stay uncombined 'lest you be stuck with one of these

You can rely on someone else's judgement

But that's not that wise 'cause

We've all got our own eyes

I judged that your innocence

Was your best form of defense

Then I found out the judge was on the take

What a mistake

CHORUS

Than combined with a teacher who resents you 'cause your young

Combined with a parent who resents you 'cause you have fun

Combined with a girl who's always got what she wants

Combined with a boy who hasn't yet--stay away from these

Who will betray you, you wouldn't pay you

To be yourself

And when they lay in fields to retire you

Who will take of their help? (I think these lines are wrong. --W.)

I can't relate just how unimportant

All the important things are

'Cause when your heart is open

It closes with a scar

I know that you can hear me

And you don't like what I'm saying

There's no trusting just for trusting's sake

What a mistake

CHORUS

Than combined with a leader who never takes a stand

Combined with a dream when no one else gives a damn

Combined with a lifestyle that soon makes you its slave

Combined with anything at all

Combined with a child that always must come first

Combined with a cure that just makes the sickness worse

Combined with a wife who you can never please

Stay uncombined lest you be stuck with one of these

You can maintain your defensive shelter

But it will be smashed down

To helter skelter
