Lyrics

Horse sense

You see your future, sense the light and shade
you say you're older
you think you've got it made

Enough is enough
Me, I'll take the smooth with the rough
You're on the brink
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him think

You risk an answer, say the hell with you
Well that's pretty clever
a simple no would do

You must be out of your mind
To leave the world behind
Ever thought of turning to drink?
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him think
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him think

And I Know, I know
I don't know it all

But I keep my mouth shut, at least I try sometimes
When I am sleeping
I hardly say a word

You give it all away, you just don't seem to care
How low can you sink
You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him think
