[intro] [verse] I know well What kind of burden I am carrying I walk the road Even if it gives me athlete's foot I thought How long have I been carrying them? It feels so distant That I cannot put this burden down [Pre-chorus] The moment I thought I had arrived, I stumble More burdens are added to me Must I go up---? [Chorus] Step by Step and Step by Step (Pow) Slip- ping again and slip- ping again (Do'h!) How far have I come? How far do I walk? Step by Step and Step by Step (Pow) Slip- ping again and slip- ping again (Do'h!) I've never been like this before Look at those pebbles [Interlude] [Verse] I'm so tired The sensation in my legs is dulling I'm in so much pain There are scratches all over my body I don't know anymore What on earth was I in my childhood? I'm walking now The thoughts I've had come flooding in [Pre-chorus] The moment I thought I was there, I stumble More burdens are added to me Must I go up---? [Chorus] Step by Step and Step by Step (Pow) Slip- ping again and slip- ping again (Do'h!) How far have we come? How far do we walk? Step by Step and Step by Step (Pow) Slip- ping again and slip- ping again (Do'h!) It has never been like this before Look at those pebbles [Bridge] [Chaos, as if collapsing] (You are so small--) You wouldn't know now, would you? (You are holding sand--) Someday you will be dug up (You are so arrogant---) You don't know why I am doing this, do you? (You are hurting me---) [Chorus] Step by Step and Step by Step (Pow) Slip- ping again and slip- ping again (Do'h!) How far have we come? How far do we walk? Step by Step and Step by Step (Pow) Slip- ping again and slip-ping again (Do'h!) [Breaks] Slipping...slipping...slipping------ - - - [Silence] [end] "Having arrived like that, Now it is my turn to pass the stone to you...."
