Lyrics Progressive Man - Shelter
So
we
went
ahead
and
did
it.
Come
on
everyone
does.
And
you
can't
hold
me
responsible.
It's
just
part
of
love.
A
mistake,
a
miscalculation.
Confirming
statistics
in
our
nation.
Hey,
look
me
in
the
eye.
I
wish
you
wouldn't
cry.
And
paint
this
picture
of
me
as
some
horrible
guy.
Well
the
joy
of
sex
and
the
freedom
of
fun.
But
the
burden
lies
on
you.
Your
just
a
kid
and
crazy
if
you
have
it.
But
it's
your
choice
what
you
do.
I'd
like
to
stay
around
and
hang
out.
But
I
got
other
things
to
do.
Try
to
keep
in
touch.
I
don't
write
that
much.
I'm
sure
youunderstand.
Progressive
man.
In
the
guise
of
love
and
fun
and
happiness.
I've
never
seen
so
much
distress.
It's
past
midnight
and
I
don't
want
to
fight.
We
should
really
get
to
bed.
Don't
tell
your
mother,
your
sisters
or
your
brothers.
They'll
all
want
me
dead.
Responsibility
- it
never
beckoned
me.
Hey,
I'm
only
21,
I'm
practially
a
bum.
How
did
all
this
mess
come
from
harmless
fun?
(Are
you
sure
I'm
the
guilty
one?)
I
know
I
should
care,
I
know
it's
not
fair.
Hey
it's
easier
to
run.
Loneliness
made
me
say
I
love
you.
I
think
I
lied
to
myself.
Don't
call
- I
don't
want
to
hear
at
all.
Forgive
me
if
you
can.
Progressive
man.
Well
I
just
did
what
they
all
do.
And
everyone
else
is
doing.
I've
heard
stories
of
romance.
And
I
wanted
to
take
a
chance.
To
taste
what
they're
pursuing.
Love
storied
told
to
me.
In
books,
TV,
and
magazines.
So
excuse
me
if
you
can.
But
try
to
understand.
I'm
a
victim
too...
Progressive
man.
