Peter Hammill - What I Did Lyrics
A pretty pass in the rear-view mirror,it's coming on the overtake...I've got to stop panicking,got to stay cool,got to learn to live with my mistakes.Overdue debt to the taxman,I tried to have and eat my cake.I think I must have been crazy in retrospect;all the lines run together.They just don't seem to connect.I want to update my memory,I want to rewrite my past...Ooh, now I found out: no chance.I think I must have been crazyto do the stuff I didI think I must have been crazy, crazy, crazy.I think I must have been crazybut that's the price we pay -every lucky throw of the dicewill come back to us one of these daysI want to update my memory,I want to rewrite my past,I don't like what it's telling me,it all floods back so fast;I guess I was my own worst enemy,now I've come to a pretty pass.A pretty pass, a pretty pass,there's nothing pretty in the pastI think I must have been crazy, crazy.Crazy to do what I did
