Ed Wagner – Looking Down From The Top lyrics

Nobody can respect me for what I'm doing
No one seems to get what I'm trying to lay upon the world
What should I be doing?
Tell me, what should I be doing to make it better?
We gotta make it better.

I sit here playing on my Nintendo
And I don't know what action I could take
Contributing to society is not what I consider my forte
Whatever happened to the passion, the motivation that keeps us going?
Have I gained any insight, or just lost my concentration?

Brainwashed by the media
In front of TV we sit
If you think war is the answer, go out and fight it
Put yourself on the other side
And lose your children and family
Maybe you can realize what it's like to be free

Whatever happened to the p-p-p-p-passion,
The motivation that kept us going?
Have I lost my inspiration
Or do I need a vacation?

Who can you trust in this crazy world?
Who can you trust in this world?
Who can you trust in this crazy world?
Who can you trust in this world?

I took a drive down easy street
Longest trip I've ever been on
When I came to the end, all my regrets were gone

What's going on in this crazy world?
What's going on in this world?
What's going on in this crazy world?
What's going on in this world?

I don't know about you, but nothing seems real to me
I'm always searching for truth
I want to get it, I really, really do.

Searching for truth, just like you

I sit here playing on my Atari
Don't know what action I could take
From what I hear on the radio,
Some people pretend to be fake
Sometimes it feels like I'm on top of the world
But you got to realize it's a small world after all

It's a small world after all [3x]
It's a small, small world
It's a small world after all [2x]
But you got to realize
I'm on top of the world

Whatever happened to the passion,
The motivation that keeps us going?
What did I lose, what did I lose
When I found everything?

Who can you trust in this crazy world?
Who can you trust in my world?
