Thanks For The Information - Van Morrison

Thanks for the information

Never give a sucker an even break

When he’s breaking through to a new level of consciousness

There always seems to be more obstacles in the way

Thanks for the information I know

It’s only a combat zone

Thanks for the memory

I’ll just have to carry on on my own

And it’s wonderful and it’s marvelous

How we can ever make it through

Sometimes I wonder how we can ever

Make it from day to day

Thanks for the information

What you gain on the hobby horse, you lose on the swing

I like mine over easy

And you can have your sunny side up

I don’t wanna quibble over insignificant details

And I’ve tried every trick in the book

Thanks for the information

I know I should look before I leap

And it’s wonderful and it’s marvelous

How we can ever make it through

Sometimes I wonder how

We can ever make it at all

Thanks for the information

Never give a sucker an even break

And with her everything light becomes heavy

And everything heavy becomes light

They took me down to the watering hole

Because I happened to mention, I was dying of thirst

Then they told me, he who believes first will be later

And he who believes later will be first

And it’s wonderful and it’s marvelous

How we can ever make it through

Sometimes I wonder how

We can ever make it at all

Thanks for the information

Oh, never give a sucker an even break

When you’re on to something, it’s a dime in

A dozen people start coming out of the woodwork

Thanks for the invitation

I know I must be on to something big

Every time, I take two steps forward

I end up having to take three back

And it’s wonderful and it’s marvelous

How we can ever make it through

Sometimes I wonder how

We can ever make it at all

Thanks for the information

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush

Everything I’m ready for a major breakthrough

I always have to think in terms of better of worse

Thanks for the information

Thanks for the memory
