    He says through the "thoughts" of a trusted friend...

    Thank you for transporting my adult brain back to my teenage brain coming of age in the great 90's 🥰

    Oh, once upon a midnight eerie
    I woke with something in my head
    I couldn't escape the memory
    Of a phone call and of what you said
    Like a game show contestant with a parting gift
    I could not believe my eyes
    When I saw through the thoughts of a trusted friend
    Who needs to humor me and tell me lies, yeah humor me and tell me lies
    And I'll lie too and say I don't mind
    And as we seek so shall we find
    And when you're feeling open I'll still be here
    But not without a certain degree of fear
    Well, what will be with you and me
    I still can see things hopefully
    But you
    Why you wanna give me a run-around?
    Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up?
    When all it does is slow me down
    Shake me and my confidence
    About a great many things
    But I've been there I can see it cower
    Like a nervous magician waiting in the wings
    Of a bad play where the heroes are right
    And nobody thinks or expects too much
    And Hollywood's calling for the movie rights
    Singing "Hey babe, let's keep in touch", hey baby, let's keep in touch
    But I want more than a touch I want you to reach me
    And show me all the things no one else can see
    So what you feel becomes mine as well
    And soon if we're lucky we'd be unable to tell
    What's yours and mine, the fishing's fine
    And it doesn't have to rhyme, so don't you feed me a line
    But you
    Why you wanna give me a run-around?
    Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up?
    When all it does is slow me down
    Tra la la la la bombardier, this is the pilot speaking
    I've got some news for you
    It seems my ship still stands no matter what you drop
    And there ain't a whole lot that you can do
    Oh sure the banner may be torn and the wind's gotten colder
    Perhaps I've grown a little cynical
    But I know no matter what the waitress brings
    I shall drink it and always be full, yeah I will drink it and always be full
    Oh I like coffee and I like tea
    I'd like to be able to enter a final plea
    I still got this dream that you just can't shake
    I love you to the point you can no longer take
    Well all right okay, so be that way
    I hope and pray that there's something left to say
    But you
    Why you wanna give me a run-around?
    Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
    When all it does is slow me down?
    Oh you
    Why you wanna give me a run-around?
    Is it a sure-fire way to speed things up
    When all it does is slow me down?

    Love this song and the lyrics are Genius !!! Reminds me of Rosalita by Bruce Springsteen and Hard to say by Sister Hazel. All of which are great songs to me. I'd like to hear all three songs in a mashup. 😂 🫡👍

    Is there a better harmonica player than John Popper. I think not! I would buy a whole CD of him just playing.

    It's shocking and embarrassing how far off I was with the lyrics. Had the" game show contestant" part correct and "hey baby let's keep in touch" that's about it.

    Can I just say, even in the 90’s I was like, “this dude can’t sing for shit, why is this song always playing?” And now it’s nostalgic even though I still hate it.
    I swear to shit, it’s the 1:48 part that always sticks out in my mind when I think about the shitty execution. Like… what the hell is up with that emphasis? What is he trying to pull?! WHY IS THIS SONG STILL PLAYING ON THE RADIO. I’m honestly losing my mind.
    Shit, why am I even leaving a comment on a song that drives me insane? What fucking force of nature drove me to actively GO looking this song up? Hnnnnnnnngggg…It’s almost like I endeavored to piss myself off when I really didn’t need to.
    I swear to shit man, it’s the 1:48, the ONE lyric that just drives me up the fucking wall. It just throws me off kilter, completely shitting on my immersion for the rest of the song. It’s so awful that I had to listen to it just to remember just how annoying and shitty it was.
    It’s still pretty nostalgic tho.
    I’m tired…

      I'm pretty sure he's trying to sound like a Hollywood producer. The line is a quote and he's mimicking the speech pattern. It's supposed to sound fake and annoying. Or I'm wrong.
