I Went to the Mirror - Todd Rundgren

I went to the mirror this morning

I looked in the mirror instead

The first thing to come into focus

The first thing to come into focus

Was a face wrapped all around my head

There’s something sticking out of the middle

I guess it’s my nose, I suppose

I just don’t recognize those eyes

All these years I’ve been watching from the other side

Uh oh, here I go thinking them crazy thoughts again

Who is that there?

You mean I been walking around in that all these years?

What’s it all about?

Where’s it all at?

I don’t want to get heavy but uh, what am I doing here?

My lip has a dark spot upon it

My teeth look like plastic in chips

And there on my chin I discover

And there on my chin I discover

One lonely red and arrogant zit

I went about my business this morning

You got to get out of bed and make that bread

But try as I may to get away

I won’t forget what I seen in the mirror today

I won’t forget what I seen in the mirror today

I won’t forget what I seen in the mirror today

I seen my eyes, I, I seen my nose

I seen my, my lips, my teeth

My, my gums, I seen my gums

I looked all the way down my throat

Listen I looked at my ears, I looked real hard at my ears

I looked at my hair, I think I’m going bald

I had hair all over the sink or something
