Little Feat – Over The Edge lyrics

Paul Barrere
Well I just don't know what to do
And I hate this confusion
I got all these questions and nowhere to lose them.
I asked for answers, got only advice
Advice is so cheap: now everyone's got a hype
To get the truth I guess you must pay the price

Don't go fallin' over the edge
Don't let your wanderin mind
Drive you out of your head
Stay on that fine line
Hold on to that thread
'Cause pain is all you'll find by fallin' over the edge

Dive on in, that's what they said
If you're lucky -- live thru it
You'll find your answers within
But if you crash and burn
The worst is you're dead
And dying can't be worse than life is over the edge

So don't go fallin' over the edge
Don't let your wanderin mind
Drive you out of your head
Stay on that fine line
Hold on to that thread
'Cause pain is all you'll find by fallin' over the edge
Just pain plain waitin' for you over the edge

Well I still don't know what to do
I know it's all an illusion
In fact -- knowing that only adds more confusion
I search for the truth, but mostly troubles I find
The truth can be costly, troubles don't cost a dime
You can have all you want because they're there all the time

Don't go fallin' over the edge
Don't let your wanderin mind
Drive you out of your head
Stay on that fine line
Hold on to that thread
'Cause pain is all you'll find by fallin' over the edge
Just pain plain waitin' for you over the edge
