Akira The Don Y Alan Watts - Its A Trap Lyrics

Now then the question arises, who's deceiving who?
Who's fooling who?
I'm fooling me?
What is fooling?
Now then the question arises, who's deceiving who?
Who's fooling who?
I'm fooling me
What is fooling?
Fooling is playing like you're there when you're not
You know getting someone else to answer your name in the role call
[Laugh]
So, we're all this is the metaphysical basis of it, this is what the Hindu's mean by māyā
The world-illusion
The world is playing it’s there when it isn’t

[Pre - Chorus]
And it's a trap
And it sucks you in
And you can't get out of it
And it's a trap
And it sucks you in
And you can't get out of it

And it's a thorough big trap too
But always when you get an idea like this, or a feeling like this
Follow it to its extreme
Don't back out from it
If you find your selfish
Go to the extreme of what selfishness means
Confusion largely results
From not following feelings or ideas to their depth
You know, people think they want to be immortal
They'd like to live forever
Do you really want to do that?
Think about it, really go into it
What it would be like
People say they want this, that, and the other
They want this kind of car, they want this kind of dress
This much money and so on
It's always a good idea to think it right through
What it would involve to be in that situation and to have those desires fulfilled
[Chorus]
It's a trap
And it sucks you in
And you can't get out of it
It's a trap
And it sucks you in
And you can't get out of it
It's a trap
And it sucks you in
And you can't get out of it
It's a trap
And it sucks you in
And you can't get out of it

Also when you form a relationship to another person
Think it through too
You see?
How inconvenient could they be?
However attractive
Always turn the embroidery around, and look at the underside
But don't get caught doing it
See, that's something one does on the side, in secret
'Cause otherwise you play the game that everything is as it's supposed to be on the front

And that makes you humorous
And that makes you human
And that makes you humorous
And that makes you human

And that makes you humorous
And that makes you human

And that makes you humorous
And that makes you human

And that makes you humorous
And that makes you human

And that makes you humorous
And that makes you human

And that makes you humorous
And that makes you human
