From the recording The Heavenly Zoo
A man confesses to the world that he simply has no idea and he won’t be getting one anytime soon. It’s a moment of resigned reckoning.
Lyrics
I'm just a guy who's guessing
forever reassessing
all the things I try to do
I can barely say hi to you
I can't count from one to two
without resorting to guessing
I think of it as a blessing
as a hard and humbling lesson
I must admit I get through my day
somehow or other I make my way
I greet each morning as if to say
here comes a man who's guessing
he's just a man
drifting without a plan
he's just trying to guess his way
through his day
this guessing I'm addressing
there's only one thing more depressing
here's what the truth turns out be
I used to think that it was only me
but Iook around and you can plainly see
I'm not the only one guessing
