Can I?

Can I? I think I can, I can, I think, think I can
Can I? I think I can, I can, I think, think I can

Take my raging bull by the horns
And ride her cross barren plains and dark forests
Somewhere between devotion and indifference
Volatile daydreaming waxing waning wallowing
Then wide-eyed, oh wide-eyed

Can I? I think I can, I can, I think, think I can
Can I? I think I can, I can, I think, think I can

Fight to defend and survive
No more yielding helpless, hopeless to the weight of time
Somewhere between devotion and indifference
Volatile daydreaming waxing waning wallowing
Then wide-eyed, oh wide-eyed
Somewhere between devotion and indifference
Volatile daydreaming, waxing waning wallowing
Then wide-eyed, oh wide-eyed

Can I? I think I can, I can, I think, think I can
Can I? I think I can, I cannot think
Cannot think, cannot think, cannot think
In other people's opinions, I swell or shrink
In other people's opinions, I swell or shrink
Can I? I think I can, I cannot think
Cannot think, cannot think, cannot think
On other people's opinions, I swim or sink
On other people's opinions, I swim or sink
Can I? I think I can, I cannot think
Cannot think, cannot think, cannot think

Grandma, hold my hand now
These steps are steep and uneven even
My little legs are a-trembling
Working so hard to keep up, keep up
With everyone walking so fast
Leaving us two behind, behind

Pull me round the block in the wagon
Pull me as fast, as fast as you can
Feed me all the things you've been hiding
From Uncle Art in his upstairs bedroom
Where are the trays that fold out
So we can eat watching television?

Can I? I think I can, I cannot think
Cannot think, cannot think, cannot think
In other people's opinions, I swell or shrink
On other people's opinions, I swim or sink
Can I? I think I can, I cannot think
Cannot think, cannot think, cannot think

Grandma, hold my hand now
These steps are steep and uneven even
Your little legs are a-trembling
Working so hard to keep up, keep up
With everyone walking so fast
Leaving us two behind, behind

Can I? I think I can, I can, I think, think I can
Can I? I think I can, I can, I think, think I can

Take my raging bull by the horns
And ride her cross barren plains and dark forests
Somewhere between devotion and indifference
Volatile daydreaming waxing waning wallowing
Then wide-eyed, oh wide-eyed
Somewhere between devotion and indifference
Volatile daydreaming, waxing waning wallowing
Then wide-eyed, oh wide-eyed

Can I?
