It's so impossible to even learn the tune.
Everybody is making love
Or else expecting rain
I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity
You breathed on me and made my life a richer one to live,;
When I was deep in poverty you taught me how to give
Well, I asked for something to eat;
I'm hungry as a hog;
So I get brown rice, seaweed;
And a dirty hot dog
And the dirt of gossip blows into my face,;
And the dust of rumors covers me.
Oh, baby, that god you been prayin' to;
Is gonna give ya back what you're wishin' on someone else
Praise be to Nero's Neptune;
The Titanic sails at dawn;
And everybody's shouting;
Which Side Are You On?
I got nothing left to burn
How long can I stay drunk on fear out in the wilderness?
God is in heaven;
And we all want what's his;
But power and greed and corruptible seed;
Seem to be all that there is
I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea;
Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me.
But I will be back, I will survive,;
You'll never get rid of me as long as you're alive.
The country music station plays soft;
but there's nothing, really nothing, to turn off
I'm T-boned and punctured;
But I'm known to be calm
This wheel shall explode!
I must be guilty of something,;
You just whisper it into my ear.
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
Your magnetic movements;
Still capture the minutes I'm in.
Did I miss the mark or;
Over-step the line;
That only you could see?
People disagreeing everywhere you look,;
Makes you wanna stop and read a book.
There's only one step down from here, baby,;
It's called the land of permanent bliss.
You don't want a love that's pure;
You wanna drown love;
You want a watered-down love
Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer;
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
You have explained every mystery.;
What can I do for You?
Oh it's rush hour now;
On the wheel and the plow;
And the sun is going down;
Upon the sacred cow.
You will search, babe, At any cost.;
But how long, babe, Can you search for what's not lost?
If you want somebody you can trust, trust yourself.
What looks large from a distance,;
Close up ain't never that big.
