lyrics

So you think you know what’s happening
And you know almost everything.
What you know is a little more than nought.

You are a baby in disguise.
Innocent but not so wise.
You believe that you are what the stork brought.

I say this clearly: You are the apple of your ‘I’.
I say this clearly: You are the apple of your ‘I’.

You get so excited.
And your eyes roll, your face turns red,
Dealing with what doesn’t fit your plan.

So you criticize and paralyze
Those who criticize and paralyze.
Annihilate what you don’t understand.

I say this clearly: You are the apple of your ‘I’.
I say this clearly: You are the apple of your ‘I’.

Year after year, the Earth is spinning ‘round a star.
Day after day, everyone wants to be a star.

So relax. Count, “1 … 2 … 3 ….”
Your eyes will open eventually.
When they do, you’ll wonder where you’ve been.

And you’ll deceive yourselves no more.
Everyone will know the score.
Finally, you’ll be the object of your dreams.

I say this clearly: You are the apple of your ‘I’.
I say this clearly: You are the apple of your ‘I’.
