Текст песни Fiction - Joni Mitchell

I can't decide, I don't know (which way to go?)
The options multiply, the choices grow (which way to go?)
What should I buy, what should I be? (Which way to go?)
Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief, so much comes at you
Too much for me (which way to go?)

Elusive dreams and vague desires
Fanned to fiery needs by golden boys in ad empires
Fiction, truth, fiction, truth, fiction, truth
Fiction

Fiction of the boob tube, fiction of the papers
Fiction of the image and the image makers
Fiction of the magazines, fiction of the movies
Fiction of the "Buy me," "Watch me," "Listen to me"

I can't decide, I'm so confused (which way to go?)
I'm being useful here, I'm being used (which way to go?)
Some line gets drawn, what line is this? (Which way to go?)
Could be a threshold or a precipice (which way to go?)

Elusive dreams and vague desires
Fanned to fiery needs by sexy boys in flaming TV fires
Fiction, truth, fiction, truth, fiction, truth
Fiction

Fiction of obedience, fiction of rebellion
Fiction of the goody-goody and the hellion
Fiction of destroyers, fiction of preservers
Fiction of peacemakers and shit disturbers

Fiction of the moralist, fiction of the nihilist
Fiction of the innovator and the stylist
Fiction of the killjoy, fiction of the charmer
Fiction of the clay feet and the shining armour

Fiction of the declaimers, fiction of the rebukers
Fiction of the pro and the no nukers
Fiction of the gizmo, fiction of the data
Fiction of the this is this and that is that

I can't decide, I don't know (which way to go?)
The more you learn, the less you know (which way to go?)
Some follow blind and never know (which way to go?)
To lead you need some place to go (which way to go?)

Elusive dreams and vague desires
Fanned to fiery needs by deadly deeds in falling empires
Fiction, truth, fiction, truth, fiction, truth
Fiction

Fiction of the diplomat, fiction of the critic
Fiction of the Pollyanna and the cynic
Fiction of the coward, fiction of the hero
Fiction of the monuments reduced to zero
