Itās a strange song from 1972 about a father leaving his wife and daughter while his child runs after him in confusion.
I love a weird bop and this one takes the cake. Itās unfortunately stuck in my head so Iām sharing itās curse.

My dad is a drummer and has been learning this song (aka listening on repeat)
Iāve been listening to this song basically my entire life and it always lived in my brain as a āmusic songā more so than a ālyric songā if you know what I meanā¦ BUT hearing it recently I realized it has the most beautiful lyrics ever so it now lives in my head as one of the best songs of all timeš
āā¦
Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
I was soaring ever higher
But I flew too high
Though my eyes could see, I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think, I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear them say
Carry on, my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, well
It surely means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about, I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say
Carry on, my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no moreā¦ā

Oh, daddy, please ask mommy
Could you come home to stay?
Me and mommy need you
And love you anyway
All the other kids I know have daddies everyday

THIS REMINDS ME OF WHENā¦
On halloween night, I ran into my friend dylan at the bus stop for a bus that never came. We all decided to walk home together and he told us that he had been walking for over 3 miles because he and his friends were too drunk to drive home from a party. (and lucky him! he got to walk home for even longer since the bus didnāt come) He talked about his 3 mile journey and how he kept hearing cayotes which really made him really pick up the pace, he was practically running home. Iāve never seen more drunk fear in someoneās eyes than dylan talking about the cayotes, āthe cayotes mannnn they were after meā
the lyrics go āWhen youāre on your own. Itās a long walk home. If they follow you, dont look back, like dylan in the moviesā
bonus itās a good song!

If you love extravagant costume design āWhat A Way To Goā is a must! The dark comedy features a dynamic protagonist, Shirley McLane, alongside her lovers (hunks Dick Van Dyke and Paul Newman to name a few) finding tragic ends and ridiculous circumstances with fabulous set designs and fashions. Enjoy!
