It's hard to know when you write these if you're offering too much or too little. Still, my hat goes off to you for solving this so quickly.

 

You're up!

P.S. As a matter of intrigue, I offer the riddle again annotated with my hints below.

 

People look at me strangely.

No matter, they've got their opinion and I've got mine.

People say I don't listen, but I hear everything.

I just don't know what they're talking about.

("his world is under observation")

("he picks up scraps of conversation")

("with the answers but no clue")

 

It's a crazy world - I'm careful where I drive these days.

One wrong turn and you could be smashed to bits and pieces.

Perhaps I should fly instead.

Bah - those things are giant deathtraps if you ask me.

("got a date with fate in a black sedan" and "reliance on the giants")

(reference to "bits" was a clue as well)

 

I have a pet peeve - why must golfers play so slow?

Maybe you've got all day but some of us don't.

At least recongize when the people behind you are constantly waiting.

Let 'em skip ahead already - is that so hard?

("He plays fast forward just as long as he can)

 

People are so wishy-washy.

I say roll the dice and make your move.

Or is it make your move and roll the dice?

No matter, the key is adjusting as you go.

("he's got a... flexible plan")

 

Been nice chatting with you, but I fear I must be going.

Lest I overextend my stay.

("he'd love to spend the night..")

no.gif not part of the song. Sorry, might have given the wrong vibes. What I meant was its not Natural Science, or any part of it, but you are close-ish with the title, and you have been using the clues in the riddle correctly. I big clue to a word in the song is in the first line of the riddle. The song is post ESL.

That would be me, but I'm going to let this thread take a breather for a bit. Anyone who wants to throw out a riddle is more than welcome to take the next one.

 

Reason being: I'm trying to come up with a bunch of doozies, let em out all at once, and have a contest to see who can solve them all first, similar to Moonraker's. Thanks to Snowdog, I actually have something to offer as a prize!

 

Better Brush Up on all things Rush! (All two of you who follow this thread lol - hopefully their will be more).

 

 

 

Cheers,

I'll try to remeber it, It might not be the same, but it will work

 

I seem Like a normal man, a happy man,

but that is all just a disguise, just to lure you in,

On top of my head, it all lies,

remove it, and I have extra eyes.

 

Who Am I?

 

I also seem to remeber having extra parts too. Oh well.
