Golden Earring

Few things really get me mad
Disappointed or truly sad
I'm out on the beach lookin' for a light
Shootin' through the summernight
And when the sun comes up
I'm going blind from stretch and strainin'
My minds eye
I don't know why I keep it up
Twenty five years gone down on luck
Everybody's seen ‘em by now
I feel like I am bein' left out
C'mon in outerspace
I wanna see you too
Spendin' all my money on the books
They wrote about you
Tune in outerspace
Something gotta give you face
Maybe it's vanity
Don't you thing that you owe it to me
When I'm at home insecure
They scrutinize me that's for sure
I take a pill and I fall asleep
Can't shake it off I'm in the deep
And when The sun goes down
I'm up all right from stretch and strainin'
My minds eye
