Fiction Lyrics - Dog Eat Dog - 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?

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 T.V. fires

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 -- Ahh! 

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
