A pony expressed his emotions to me
he said how it feels to be a pony
he said he just feels like a little horse
I said there's a resemblance, of course
But not to worry all is well
A pony's a pony and that is swell!

I went to see the doctor
he was full of doom and gloom
he said I need to see the doctor
that is in another room
So I went back to New York City
because it's been so many years
and I looked up at all the buildings
and my eyes just filled with tears
Then I headed out to Vegas
just to see what I could do
but it was way too much money
so I got on a plane and I flew
Then I fell into the ocean
and ended up in Kalamazoo
so I drove to Carolina
and I listened to Dr Wu
And then I went back to the doctor
and he said he didn't know
and I said it didn't matter
so he told me all was well
So I called up the preacher
and I told him all is lost
he told me not to worry
then he tallied up his cost
Then I left for Mississippi
but she was there no more
so I went to California
with the cold and rocky shore
So I found a new profession
and I bought a brand new car
then I felt like drinking *****
with some tonic at the bar
And then I walked into the nighttime
and I swam from shore to shore
until my body couldn't take it
and then I did it some more
So I went back to see the doctor
and he asked me where I'd been
I said I walked across the nation
and it was all because of him
Then I felt like I was falling
and that was when he shut the door
he told me everything was broken
and that he could do no more
So I went to find another doctor
just to see what he would say
and he told me I was dreaming
but I didn't have to pay
Now I felt like God was calling
so I looked up in the sky
and he told me not to worry
but he didn't tell me why
So I went back to Indiana
and I found all of my friends
and I gathered all my family
and I said this is the end

I asked God what He wanted
and He said not to cry
He said it doesn't matter
but He didn't say why
I pointed to the thing
way up in the sky
He told me not to worry
Then He said goodbye

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my life and weep
If I'm alive when I awake
I say the Lord made a mistake

Why have you abandoned me?

And then I walked across the water
and met you on the other side
and there I asked you what you wanted
and then I saw it in you eyes
And so we wandered to the river
and felt like running wild
But then I told you about the morning
when I was just a child
And then the mountains in the distance
appeared from beneath the clouds
and we forgot about the nightmares
and all the wasted hours
And then I asked you about the reason
you walked away that night
But everything that happens happens
and we know that's right

George said it best
back in 1969
how little did I know
that in good time
It would also be
All Too Much for me
