Wrong Thinking - Gerry Rafferty

Is this a state that you can’t control

Or don’t you care who you’re talking to Each time when things get out of hand

Why it’s the same thing you always do You start to point out other people’s mistakes

Sometimes you even show contempt

How come the way you exclude yourself

Can’t you see that you’re not exempt?

Wrong thinking gets the better of you

It only takes a moment or two

Comes stealin' like a thief in the night

Changes every little thing in sight

Wrong thinking gets the better of you.

Well it’s the same old thing that happens

Every time you react that way

Tomorrow you’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 stealin' 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.
