Thanks for the Information - Lyrics - 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's 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 from day to day 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 Everytime 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 from day to day Thanks for the information A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush Every time 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
