Bleeding Obvious

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

It started off so easy and now it's clear as mud

Your life is complicated and I'd help you if I could

Time is slipping by you know and things are moving fast

You've got a long wait ahead my friend, if you save the best for last

[Chorus 1]

It's bleeding obvious

What a thing to say

Don't mind the rest of us

Have it your own way

[Verse 2]

You raise your voice to make your point and I'm trying to get some sleep

I said man it's all right by me, but you're getting in way too deep

I got it all the first time 'round so turn it down, give it a rest

It's not that complicated and I know what's coming next

[Chorus 2]

It's all so obvious

You shouldn't be surprised

But I find it curious

They don't have it in your size

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

I have forgotten where we started

'Cause somewhere along the line

The salient point departed

And parked itself in a back street

In a lonely part of town

Mmm, it was lost in the fog of time

You started so well

Then went off on a trip around the world

Everywhere under the sun

If you ever return

We'll see if you learned

That it all adds up to one

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

I know you think I'm stupid but you got to give me time

I'm sitting with my hand up but you send me to the back of the line

I hear you but it's all too much for the likes of little old me

You say this and that and who knows what, it's so hard to believe

[Chorus 3]

It's bleeding obvious

If what you're trying to say

The same as all the rest of us

In quite another way
