"Carry On Wayward Son" lyrics

Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more
Hah!

Ohhh...

Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion
I was soaring ever higher
But I got too high
Though my eyes could see, I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think, I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreaming
I can hear the voices say

Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man
It surely means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about, I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune
But I hear the voices say

Carry on my completely worthless, unemployed son
There'll be peace when you get a goddamn job!
Here's my foot, there's the door
Don't you loaf no more
Go!

Uh huh
Uh!

Alright!

Carry on!
You will always remember
Carry on!
Nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
Surely something waits for you, somewhere

Carry on my worthless son
Get off the goddamn couch and get a goddamn job!
Here's my foot, there's the door
Don't you cry
(Don't you cry no more!) No more!

No more
No more
More

No more
No more
