Reasonable Man Songtext

von Tiny Ruins

I went in search of a
Reasonable man
The one I read about in books
And I drew me up a plan

I said "I'd like to meet him on a corner if I can"
And then we could take either road
Depending upon where we stand

I went in search of a
Reasonable man
And I thought "Ooh it must be lonely
To be the only voice of reason"
The sky went so rosy
Now I hear a rumbling sound

In silence drinking coffee
For a reasonable time
He said "you're looking pretty"
And I said "you're looking at your prime"

Contender for the future
Will you be mine
But his straight-laced face
It all folded up
And he took that "it's not so simple" line

I went in search of a
Reasonable man
And I thought "Ooh it must be lonely
To be the only voice of reason"
The sky went so rosy
Now my world is crumbling down

We need more reasonable men

And I said oooh you're selling us short
Reasonable man

And I said ooh where's your heart, reasonable man
Cause when I look on that star
Will you go reasonable man
When the going gets tough
Will you go reasonable man
And when the going gets tough
Will you go reasonable man
