Carry On Wayward Son (Live)

Lyrics

Carry on my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Wear your--[flubs the line] (Was that like, "Lay your weary head to rest"? [?], yeah) Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry no more Go! Ahhh... [Verse 1] Once I rose above the noise and confusion Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion I was soaring ever higher But I flew too high Though my eyes could see, I still was a blind man Though my mind could think, I still was a mad man I hear the voices when I'm dreaming I can hear them say [Chorus] Carry on my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry no more [Verse 2] Masquerading as a man with a reason My charade is the event of the season And if I claim to be a wise man It surely means that I don't know On the stormy seas of moving emotion Tossed about, I'm like a ship on the ocean I set a course for winds of fortune I can hear them say [Chorus] Carry on my wayward son Get the hell off the couch and get a goddamn job! Get your ass out the door Don't you cry no more Go! Alright! Alright, go! [Bridge] Carry on! You will always remember Carry on! Nothing equals the splendor Now your life's no longer empty Surely something waits for you [Chorus] Carry on my wayward, unemployed son Get the sh-- off the couch and get a goddamn job! [Gibberish] Don't you cry (Don't you cry no more!) No more! [Scatting] No more! No more! No more! Hey! No! Euugh! Ahhh... Ahhh! Sheer brilliance!
