Disappearing Skin Tight Blues Kansas

I'm livin' above the fault line
Like a bird up on a wire
I come in from the cold at night
And I stand next to the fire
Now, most times I can win one
But someday I could lose
Then I'll have to start all over again
And shake off all these blues
'Cause you tore down all the fences
And you put me in the clear
Then I left my old skin behind
And I started to disappear

Now there's something in the kitchen
And it's cookin' mighty fine
There's a good one in the oven
And I'm sure gonna get in line
In the interest of my nutrition
I'm about to take the plunge
I'm gonna take the whole thing in
And I'm gonna soak it up like a sponge
Need a map with new direction
And a compass for the turn
Then I'll take that drink of water
And let the old one burn
