The Defector

You said you had to get away

That nothing here could change your mind

And as another year goes by

I hope that what you want, you’ll find

Your picture postcard from New York

Was good to see, your grinning face

But somewhere in between the lines

Something was slightly out of place

East, West, who are you fooling girl?

Can you really fit in their world?

So they like your hair

And the clothes you wear

But curiosity

Is not reality

At least not for me

How long until you realize

You’re only running from yourself

And still that shadow on the wall

Belongs to you and no one else

East, West, who are you fooling girl?

Can you really fit in their world?

To you it seems to free

But honey can’t you see

You can have your fun

Till someone pulls a gun

Then where do you run?

How long until you realize

You’re only running from yourself

And still that shadow on the wall

Belongs to you and no one else

East, West, who are you fooling girl?

Can you really fit in their world?

Maybe I’m all wrong

Maybe you belong

But anytime you want

You know you’ve got a home

All you got to do is call

East, West, who are you fooling girl?

Can you really fit in their world?

East, West, who are you fooling girl?

Can you really fit in their world?

East, West, who are you fooling girl?

Can you really fit in their world?
