I've Been Wrong Before

I don't believe in UFOs and little men from Mars
I don't believe in magic lamps bought at junk bazaars
I don't believe the world will ever be without a war
I don't believe a lot of things--
But I've been wrong before!
I don't believe the souls of man can haunt you after life.
I don't believe the world hangs on the edge of a knife.
I don't believe we should stop thinking for an oath we swore.
I don't believe a lot of things--
But I've been wrong before!
People tell me their crazy yarns
Like ghosts, and Gods, and ESP, and UFOs in barns.
But if half this crap has turned out true--
If you close your mind at this point, the only fool is you!
I don't believe a God above invented all that's good.
I don't believe that there's a need to rush from childhood
I don't believe the world began with a lion's roar
I don't believe a lot of things--
But I've been wrong before!
People tell me their crazy yarns
Like ghosts sometimes, and ESP, and UFOs in barns
Half this crap has turned out true--
If you close your mind at this point, the only fool is you!
I don't believe it's always kind to say the nicest thing.
I don't believe a "sugar lie" is aw-inspiring.
I don't believe in posing kind and sneaking out the door
I don't believe a lot of things--
But I've been wrong before!
