Is this a state that you can't control
Or don't you care who you're talking to
Each time when things get out of hand
Why it's the same thing you always do
You start to point out other people's mistakes
Sometimes you even show contempt
How come the way you exclude yourself
Can't you see that you're not exempt?
Wrong thinking gets the better of you
It only takes a moment or two
Comes stealin' like a thief in the night
Changes every little thing in sight
Wrong thinking gets the better of you.
Well it's the same old thing that happens
Every time you react that way
Tomorrow you'll want to forget
Everything you said today
But everytime something reminds you
You play the same old game inside
Any excuse in the book will do
Everything can be justified.
Wrong thinking gets the better of you
It only takes a moment or two
Comes stealin' like a thief in the night
Changes every little thing in sight
Wrong thinking gets the better of you
Better of you. Gets the better of you.

Gerry Rafferty (1947-2011) was a Scottish singer-songwriter and guitarist known for his folk rock style influenced by blues. Born in Paisley, Scotland, Rafferty began his musical career in the 1960s with the groups The Humblebums and Stealers Wheel. With the latter, he achieved international success in 1973 with the single "Stuck in the Middle with You", which became a rock classic. After the dissolution of Stealers Wheel, Rafferty embarked on a successful solo career, releasing albums such as "City to City" (1978) and "Right Down the Line" (1980), both characterized by catchy melodies and introspective lyrics. His most famous song is probably "Baker Street", a 1978 single that topped the charts in many countries thanks also to the famous saxophone solo. Rafferty continued to record music until the late 1990s, although he never reached the commercial success of his early years. He died in 2011 at the age of 63.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
