The Wrong Way

I don’t know what I’m doing
All I know is I’m doing it the wrong way
I don’t know where I’m going
All I know is I’m going there the wrong way
There must come a time in everybody’s life
They must choose the way to go
And I know I’ve chosen mine
I’m goin’ the wrong way

I met a man just yesterday as I was walkin’ down the hall
He said I fail to see the big predicament, I said “I fail to see anything at all”
He said “We’re taking step to rectify the problem which has plagued us of late”
I said “Let me know when you get it all fixed up but don’t knock early, I sleep late”

I don’t know what I’m doing
All I know is I’m doing it the wrong way
I don’t know where I’m going
All I know is I’m going there the wrong way
There must come a time in everybody’s life
They must choose the way to go
And I know I’ve chosen mine
I’m goin’ the wrong way

I was eating a croissant one day when a man came up to me
He said “Can you move? We wanto build a monument here
To those killed in wars this century”
I said “Can you wait till I finish my croissant?” He said “Yes we will”
But by the time I finished it they had three more monuments they had to build.

I don’t know what I’m doing
All I know is I’m doing it the wrong way
I don’t know where I’m going
All I know is I’m going there the wrong way
There must come a time in everybody’s life
They must choose the way to go
And I know I’ve chosen mine
I’m goin’ the wrong way

I remember a teacher I had back in school
He said to me “You’re a fool” I said “Who’s the fool?”
I said “Only yesterday you told me that I know everything.”
He said “When’d I say that?” I said “When you told me
No-one could teach me anything.”

I don’t know what I’m doing
All I know is I’m doing it the wrong way
I don’t know where I’m going
All I know is I’m going there the wrong way
There must come a time in everybody’s life
They must choose the way to go
And I know I’ve chosen mine
I’m goin’ the wrong way
