Crucial Moment
Steve Martin
So many people will come and go
Past their time before they know
Swear they were there from the start
Never had it in their hearts
Things you do--come back to you
Things you've said--echo on inside your head
Figureheads come cheap these days
No one listens to what they say
In their faces I see the fear
A crucial moment drawing near
You pay the price--take bad advice
What they said--echoes on in your head
