Beautiful Danger
wds&music gary wollman
Complaining for years too sick for tears
You keep motorin’ on to escape your own fears
Ricocheting around like a hardball hit for fun
Playing tag on a wager with losers kept on the run
And lovers left undone
Nothing could be stranger
Don’t you agree as
Beautiful danger
Beautiful danger
Life‘s been solid but it ain’t never been sweet
Left livin’ full tribe keeping up with the street
(Barely satisfied to go with just enough to eat)
So unseemly and completely incomplete
Goin’ loggerheads with just about
Most everyone you meet
Yet you’ll never admit your fait accompli
To family or stranger
And you can’t stay away from
Beautiful danger
Beautiful Danger
Beautiful Danger
You can live with the torment or set yourself free
or resist til the very end as proud as one can be
But what’s got under your skin guarantees your defeat
You may distract yourself with danger
Til your match you finally meet
and you’ve been beat
Take the scenic route
No don’t risk all you see
Smell the roses along the road to
Sweet sanity
So you can leave
Beautiful danger
Quit your trollin’ for trouble
Better do it on the double
Don’t let it stain ya
It’s time to rearrange ya
Gotta get away from
It’ll never sustain ya
Keeps tryin’ to play ya
Beautiful danger
