Never you mind what they do

| you ever notice how it is easier to play chess if you're not actually playing, just watching and yelling advice at the people who are trying to concentrate? i think that that is what this song is saying: you're trying to figure out what to do and everyone else says that they can see the solution, you just have to ignore all this and do what you think is right. | |
