YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING!
You Gotta Be Kidding!
They say many a true word is spoken in a jest! Sometimes, even a hyperbole can be mistaken for the truth it is not.
The more things change around our world, the more they remain the same. The truth is stranger than fiction.
You gotta be kidding… You gotta be kidding.
Yes, you gotta be kidding before you can make sense to a lot of people.
Why do I have to repeat myself a dozen times before you can hear the words I am saying?
Did you read me?
Lies sound more credible when spread from a distance.
Imagination has a strange way of subverting the reality of life.
For unknown reasons, things make sense to others when observed from a lopsided angle.
This is nothing but just another buzzword... empty meaningless rumours.
Excuse me...
You gotta be kidding… You gotta be kidding. Yes, you gotta be kidding before you can make sense to a lot of people.
Why do I have to repeat myself a dozen times before you can hear the words I am saying?
It boggles the mind to make sense from all this empty verbiage.
We live in a rapidly changing world. Lately, Mother Nature has taken the turn for the worst.
The weather is no longer what it used to be like when we were growing as kids.
Maturing into the age of wisdom… is not the same world I had dreamed about as a naive youth.
If I knew what kind of a world awaited me… I would have remained in my deified boyhood bubble.
For real now. I am not kidding you at all… these are just straight facts.
Why do people fail to believe what their ears are telling them?
Did you hear what I am saying to you? Can you read my lips.
You gotta be kidding… You gotta be kidding. Yes, you gotta be kidding before you can make sense to a lot of people.
Would you believe me if I told you that outta of sight is not necessarily outta of mind?
Please, stay with me on this.
People sitting in the same room can drift worlds apart from each other by the power of imagination.
I am here with you, but my mind is roaming around somewhere in a different universe.
You see me walking down here under African skies…
Hello. I am jaywalking all over the streets of London!
Forget it.
Why do I have to repeat myself a dozen times before you can hear the words I am saying?
O’ God! What happened to my world of yesteryear?
What a creepy sight!
You gotta be kidding… You gotta be kidding.
Yes, you gotta be kidding before you can make sense to people.
People I used to know have morphed into uncouth caricatures I bumped into in the middle earth.
You gotta be kidding me!
