Action Figure

I heard a rumor that I'm sad Or at least that I feel bad Whoever said that doesn't know I'm pretty sure that I don't know And if a case was made for this Could it be something that we missed Let's let the cat out of the bag Let's let the neighborhood go bad It takes some time but there you go It takes a lot of guts to show The silly side of who we are As if we'd ever go that far So we can put the watch away And we can throw away the cane And we can walk through God's own will Because he's crying, crying still today What are the odds that you are right? What will we have to eat tonight? What if I told you it's okay To be my action figure? I've swatted bugs all afternoon I've swallowed beer like a cartoon And if old Waylon hung the moon Will we be singing with him soon? Today And I will learn to look away When there are things I cannot bear Perhaps you'll sing a different tune Perhaps we'll learn to tell the difference And there are people that I know Who learns to live within their limits And we are lucky to be so Completely interactive
