Chalk it up to experience
Workin' for the West is overly intense
I know politics are quite surreal
Don't you know what the party said?
Change your mind, you're better red than dead
I know, that's not the way I used to feel
Standin' on the great divide (lookin' both ways)
Lookin' for the man with the winnin' smile
Standin' on the great divide (lookin' both ways)
Wish I could see for miles
Settle down, put your tie in place
Flash a smile, it's such a lovely place
I know, nothing's gonna change your mind
Watch your step, you can trip and fall
It's the rule, you must come when you are called
I know, it's dangerous to look behind
Standin' on the great divide (lookin' both ways)
Lookin' for the man with the winnin' smile
Standin' on the great divide (lookin' both ways)
Wish I could see for miles
Standin' like a sphynx on a pyramid
A mystery to the world
Makin' up your mind like Quisling did
Sort 'em out, let the dance begin
Swing your partner, let your rival in
It's hard to weave between the rank and file
Lookin' out from the mountain top
It's hard to guess if you should go or stop
I know, you've got an indecisive style
Standin' on the great divide (lookin' both ways)
Lookin' for the man with the winnin' smile
Standin' on the great divide (lookin' both ways)
Wish I could see for miles
Standin' on the great divide (lookin' both ways)
Lookin' for the man with the winnin' smile
Standin' on the great divide (lookin' both ways)
Wish I could see for miles
Wish I could see for miles
Wish I could see for miles
Wish I could see for miles
