Living in My Head

I've got a room for recipes

Got a room with a view

got a room for introspection

Got a room for you

And an extensive library where I

store the things I've read

I've got a space for everything

In that mansion in my head

Chorus

Living in my head

Living in my head

When I'm tired of living large and want a break instead

I retire to a peaceful room

With a warm soft comfy bed

Then the world can do it's own thing

While I'm living in my head

Got a room for politics

Got a room for bucks

At times it's hard to swallow

Why some stuff in them sucks

I've got a room with detailed maps

Got a room packed full of plans

Got a room where recent mail

And miscellaneous lands

Chorus living in my head etc.

Bridge

Sometimes a thought is logical

Sometimes it's absurd

Sometimes I want to nail it down

And I can't find the word

After I have fussed and mused

And then have lost the thread

The thought occurs it's time to still

That voice inside my head

Living in my head

Living in my head

When I'm tired of living large and want a break instead

I retire to a peaceful room

With a custom home made bed

Then the world can do

What it's going to do

While I'm living in my head

PS

I don't need a reservation

I'm good until I'm dead
