Hey Timothy
I wish for clairvoyance
I wanna see my wife and kids
And how I will live and how I will die
(Son you should!)

It's out of fright
It's self-absorption
I wanna learn from my mistakes
Before they can scare me away from the drugs
(Son you should!)

I picture a man who misses his father
He never learned to cook for himself
And spends all his time on his waistline
(Son you should invest!)

I picture a man who lives in the past
He keeps a book of photographs
Of his younger self, clairvoyant self
(Son you should invest!)

    Ooh. I like this song, I love the strings in this piece, and quiet, sometimes urgency of Owen's words, and the "mob shout of Son you should!)...hey noseovertail711, what's all this about School of Magic - you've mentioned it a couple times, do you mind explaining? Thnx
