If only I could be less blind 
If only I knew what to find 
Everywhere and all of the time 
It's bending my mind 
Confusion's prince is at my door 
The crown I wear is the one he wore 
He's here to bring me down some more 
And bend my mind 
The friendly stranger calls my name 
He only wants me for his game 
But it don't matter, just the same 
I'll bend his mind 
I've waved my flags into the sun 
I've fought my wars and now they're won 
And I didn't need nobody's gun 
I bent their mind 
If only I could be less blind 
If only I knew what to find 
Everywhere and all of the time 
It's bending my mind
