Oh my name it is nothin';
My age it means less
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or fairy tales, say he's got no style.
I stood unwound beneath the skies;
And clouds unbound by laws.
I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch.
She was born in spring, but I was born too late
Without freedom of speech, I might be in the swamp.
And the words that are used;
For to get the ship confused;
Will not be understood as they're spoken.
I see people who are supposed to know better standin' around like furniture.
Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain;
That could hold you dear lady from going insane
We pointed out the way to go;
And scratched your name in sand,;
Though you just thought it was nothing more;
Than a place for you to stand.
Hot chili peppers in the blistering sun
I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
Oh what dear daughter 'neath the sun;
Would treat a father so,;
To wait upon him hand and foot;
And always tell him, "No"?
I wouldn't be ashamed to be seen with you anywhere.
What good am I if I know and don't do,;
I If I see and don't say, if I look right through you
All my friends have told me;
If I hang around with you;
That I'll go blind
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
He got an all girl orchestra and when he says;
"Strike up the band," they hit it
you remind me of something that used to be;
somethin' that crossed over from another century
Well, I got a harmonica job, begun to play,;
Blowin' my lungs out for a dollar a day.
All I really want to do,;
Is, baby, be friends with you.
I can't provide for you no easy answers,;
Who are you that I should have to lie?
We grew up together;
From the cradle to the grave;
We died and were reborn;
And then mysteriously saved.
Lookin' at my shadow watching the colors up above
Now at midnight all the agents;
And the superhuman crew;
Come out and round up everyone;
That knows more than they do
What looks large from a distance,;
Close up ain't never that big.
And then you told me later, as I apologized;
That you were just kiddin' me, you weren't really from the farm
