Chameleon
Oh Chameleon
You really are alone
Oh Chameleon
I got some eyes to loan
I see you are standing in everybody’s line
Don’t you think?
It’s about time
That you find
A place of your own.
Oh Chameleon
What is it that you believe?
Oh Chameleon
A Gypsy sees you climbing another tree
And she tells me
That the tree is falling
I hear voices calling
And you’re still stalling
Oh Chameleon
Sometimes I think you’re me.
