I still have my mind


you have your facts and figures
about my biology
you've got your mind made up
when it's concerning me
can I meet your approval?
can I pass all your tests?
can I believe your opinions
when you say you know what's best?

          there is more to me
          than you'll ever see
          you have not witnessed
          my history
          you're looking for
          what you will never find
          I may be an old man
          but I still have my mind

I can still remember
the places of my past
I can still do long division
my knowledge seems to last
I may need help in some things
but listen, so do you
I've still got some miles to go
before my journey's through

          there is more to me
          than you'll ever see
          you have not witnessed
          my history
          you're looking for
          what you will never find
          I may be an old man
          but I still have my mind

so take your facts and figures
your plans and studies too
take your unanswered questions
and all the stuff you do
you think you know what's right for me
but you don't have a grasp
take all your false projections
and shove them up your ass

          there is more to me
          than you'll ever see
          you have not witnessed
          my history
          you're looking for
          what you will never find
          I may be an old man
          but I still have my mind
          I may be an old man
          but I still have my mind
