Lyrics

When you've only got holes in your pockets
An' there just 'ain't enough to go round
If you're still standin' tall you'll be counted
But don't look down
While you still got that crazy expression
Like the wind driven out from your sails
Some folks they got worthless obsessions
And when the time comes they'll all get dragged down
When you jump from one thing to the next - there's no sense in it
Change your allegiance as if you were fencing it
Then can't you see that there's only pretence in it
Like a chameleon - one minute there, and then -
Gone like the breeze carried off by the ocean
On to the next world of shallow emotion
Lines of cocaine like some magical potion
Hey you chameleon - no-one can see that you're gone
Now you look through that Window of Promise
Starin' out from your Ivory Tower
Can't you see your horizons are shrinkin'
Every Hour?
Got to rein in those Great Expectations
Take the Old Masters down from the walls
Revise your belief in your station
If you're lucky you won't lose it all
When you jump from one thing to the next - there's no sense in it
Change your allegiance as if you were fencing it
Then can't you see that there's only pretence in it
Like a chameleon - one minute there, and then -
Gone like the breeze carried off by the ocean
On to the next world of shallow emotion
Lines of cocaine like some magical potion
Hey you chameleon - no-one can see that you're gone
