Steppenwolf - None of the Above lyrics

By John Kay, Michael Palmer, Steven Palmer

Not so long ago girl when you were on your own

I would hear your voice quite often, darling, on my telephone

And with gentle accusation hiding in your tone, you'd say

What's the matter baby? Tell me what did I do wrong?

Do you feel a new desire? Is it someone you admire?

Irons in the fire that keep you occupied?

Do you need a little shove? Have you got no time for love?

Is it none of the above that keeps you from my side?

But, oh how time has changed everything on my mind

For now that I am looking for you, I find that I've been left behind

Somewhere, somehow down the line

Lately, I've been wondering how did you slip by me?

We've always stuck together babe when trouble caught our eye

I 'been calling you for days, not a single sign of life

You really got me worried girl, are you still alive?

Do you feel a new desire? Is it someone you desire?

Irons in the fire that keep you occupied?

Do you need a little shove? Have you got no time for love?

Is it none of the above that keeps you from my side?
