Insider’s Guide to Life

Lyrics

Years ago I went out and some damaged old guy said "Boy, you look uneasy" And we stepped out for a smoke And as I turned to leave, he said he had something for me So he handed me a book, with sorrow in his eyes And the title seemed so good It was "The Insider's Guide to Life" And I asked him if this book ever did him any good He said, "I never read it son, but I really think you should" All it did was gather dust I tried to read it but it seemed so heavy I dragged it еverywhere so that somеday I could read it It would reveal itself to me He handed me a book with sorrow in his eyes And the title seemed so good It was '"The Insider's Guide to Life" And I asked him if this book ever did him any good He said, "I never read it son, but I really think you should" Years later I met a younger man I said, "Boy, you look so uneasy" And I handed him a book, with sorrow in my eyes And the title seemed so good It was "The Insider's Guide to Life" And he asked me if this book ever did me any good I said, "I never read it son, but I really think you should"
