wrong thinking

Gerry Rafferty

Is this a state that you canââ?¬â?¢t control
Or donââ?¬â?¢t you care who youââ?¬â?¢re talking to
Each time when things get out of hand
Why itââ?¬â?¢s the same thing you always do
You start to point out other peopleââ?¬â?¢s mistakes
Sometimes you even show contempt
How come the way you exclude yourself
Canââ?¬â?¢t you see that youââ?¬â?¢re not exempt?

Wrong thinking gets the better of you
It only takes a moment or two
Comes stealinââ?¬â?¢ like a thief in the night
Changes every little thing in sight
Wrong thinking gets the better of you.

Well itââ?¬â?¢s the same old thing that happens
Every time you react that way
Tomorrow youââ?¬â?¢ll want to forget
Everything you said today
But everytime something reminds you
You play the same old game inside
Any excuse in the book will do
Everything can be justified.

Wrong thinking gets the better of you
It only takes a moment or two
Comes stealinââ?¬â?¢ like a thief in the night
Changes every little thing in sight
Wrong thinking gets the better of you
Better of you. Gets the better of you.
