BALL OF CONFUSION

from THE PASSING PARADE by Jack Howard

/

lyrics

Ball of confusion, the power of one
Truth or illusion, don't stare at the sun
The cards are stacked, the aces are high
This game is for losers, it's do it's die

Keep you chin up, it's not a perfect world
Let your guard down, it's not a perfect world

Morning has broken, the table is set
Guests are arriving, feeling okay
Conversation is flowing, it's all going well
Time to relax, it's not heaven or hell

Keep you chin up, it's not a perfect world
Let your guard down, it's not a perfect world

Out in the backyard, the evening is warm
Nerves start to twitch, so true to form
Find an excuse, say your goodbyes
You long for escape, you wish you know why

Keep you chin up, it's not a perfect world
Let your guard down, it's not a perfect world
