lyrics

Ooh baby destiny
You can smile at every surprise
Or wander in misery

So whatever happened to escaping wheels of pain
And whatever happened to the still be still be still be still be
And whatever happened to the ghost of choice improved occasions
The comic illusions of our friendly foe the ego's needs

Ooh baby destiny
You can smile at every surprise
Or wander in misery
Ooh baby destiny
Try controlling each roll of the dice
Or ponder the mystery

And sometimes it seems like there's only so much one can swallow
Just walking around in this world can consume all belief
When tremors and triggers and tumors decide
The fate of so many with nowhere to hide till their time is due

And sometimes it seems that there's nothing much else one can swallow
Still thumbing your nose at the world seems to bring no relief
When the boss of exhaustion is docking your pay
Leaving you lost and abandoned

Tomorrow is near and there's been no today
And all Cinderellas are slipping away
If you want to keep going you're gonna need all your strength 'cause
The future's around every corner with instruments sharpened

And whatever happens there's escaping wheel of pain decisions
And whatever happens there is still be still be still be still
And whatever happens there's the ghost of choice improved occasions
A chance to defy the dance of our friendly foe the ego's needs

Ooh baby destiny
Ooh baby destiny
Ooh baby destiny
Ooh baby destiny
