Intrepid Traveler
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler
If only you knew, we're all cheering for you
Because we're all in the know
Except for you; no, you don't have a clue
Your journey entertains
From which you can't refrain, oh no
It's the same old story again and again
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler
If only you knew, we all walk in your shoes
From the comfort of our home
We all watch everything you do
The movie entertains
But we can feel your pain, oh boy
As you’re bound to live it unto no end
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler (traveler)
Traveler (traveler)
Traveler (traveler)
Traveler, traveler
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler
*Interlude*
Oh, you brave, unwavering soul
If only you knew, oh, if only you knew,
That we're all in on the joke
Just know, no one is laughing at you
We're all actors on a stage
Performing for the role of a lifetime
Acting like we're not acting at all
And we're living in our play
Performing before an audience of one
Just waiting on that curtain call
*Interlude*
Oh, you proud, wandering warrior
You're a rebel without applause
Before the sondering voyeur,
You appear merely just because
The show, it entertains
But we're only staring at the shadows on the wall
Being cast by the flames
But we can turn around any time we want
Yeah, turn around and leave whenever we want
But then we'll have to take the dragon on,
And do it on our own
And if we’re planning on taking the dragon on,
We're gonna have to end the show
And we’d better slay that dragon down,
Or return to it its gold
If ever we’re to turn around,
We’ll need to learn how to be bold
Just like that poor intrepid traveler
Oh, the poor intrepid traveler
Yeah, the poor intrepid traveler
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler (traveler (oo-oh, oh))
Traveler (traveler (oo-oh, oh))
Traveler (traveler (oo-oh, oh))
Traveler, traveler
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler
If only you knew, we're all cheering for you
Because we're all in the know
Except for you; no, you don't have a clue
Your journey entertains
From which you can't refrain, oh no
It's the same old story again and again
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler
If only you knew, we all walk in your shoes
From the comfort of our home
We all watch everything you do
The movie entertains
But we can feel your pain, oh boy
As you’re bound to live it unto no end
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler (traveler)
Traveler (traveler)
Traveler (traveler)
Traveler, traveler
Oh, you poor intrepid traveler
*Interlude*
Oh, you brave, unwavering soul
If only you knew, oh, if only you knew,
That we're all in on the joke
Just know, no one is laughing at you
We're all actors on a stage
