More Or Less

Lyrics:

Marcus Aurelius was a philosopher king, renowned for his wisdom, but everyone knows every now and then every wiseman plays the fool
Well those are just the ropes of the ring, the breaks of the swing, the ways of this world as a rule

He said, "You know that you may chase a track just to trace it right back to yourself"
He said, "You know that you may find that you have been found wanting, you know sometimes it can be oh so very hard to tell

He said, "You know you ricochet all the rhetoric that just doesn't suit you, but sometimes, man, like the tailor says, you just have to go and get dressed"
At least that is the way, at least that is the way I have seen it, thus far
More or less

Lady Boudicca, she was a warrior-queen, Rome, they claimed that she betrayed them, but her people knew that she was justified and just of mind
She said, "You know it really all depends, you know it really all depends on how you tame yourself and the storm in your eye

She said, "You know you slip and you slide where all the surface is wet, you know you slip and you slide where all the surface is wet"

She said, "You know you ricochet all the rhetoric that just doesn't suit you, but sometimes, man, like the tailor says, you just have to go get measured and dressed"
At least that is the way, at least that is the way I have seen it, thus far
More or less
