What I Did

Peter Hammill

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus 1]
I think I must have been crazy in retrospect;
All the lines run together
But they just don't seem to connect
I think I must have been crazy
To do all the things I did...
Try to keep the pot on a gentle simmer
But something blows off the lid

[Pre-Chorus]
I want to update my memory
I want to rewrite my past...
Ooh, now I found out: no chance

[Chorus 2]
I think I must have been crazy (Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, yeah)
To do the stuff I did
I think I must have been crazy, crazy (Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, yeah)
To do the stuff I did
I think I must have been crazy (Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy)

[Post-Chorus 1]
I think I must have been crazy
But that's the price we pay –
Every lucky throw of the dice
Will come back to us one of these days

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I 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 past

[Chorus 3]
I think I must have been crazy (Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy)
I think I must have been crazy (Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, yeah)
To do the stuff I did
I think I must have been crazy (Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, yeah)
To do the stuff I did
I think I must have been crazy
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy
Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy
To do what I did
