"hit or miss" (dave smalley)

(fotografia de michael kenna, "swings, catskills mountains, new york", 1977)


"so you want to become a hero
stop the world -- become a hero
we just can't find one anywhere
can't find one anywhere

so you're thinking you're a victim
stop the world cause you're a victim
well, you can find one anywhere
you can find one everywhere

life's just a hit or miss
all the time, just a hit or miss
sometimes you take a swing and miss
a swing and a miss
well sometimes, we take a swing and hit!

now you're thinking about the future
try to picture some kind of future
you just can't see one anywhere -- can't see it anywhere

well we need to find us a hero
can you tell me where are the heroes
who can clean up everywhere
hey g.i. joe, where are you now?
and if I could count the times
that I looked up to the sky
and asked someone to save me. . ." (1)
