The King And The Hermit
02:13
|
|||
|
The King came to his house
He told him he must pay a fee
Else he will be kicked out
"This is the King's property."
The Hermit said, "Come in,
Sit down and I'll make you some tea
And, hey, we both have a face
But can we not share a place?
Did you know that you beg more
Than people without homes?"

Egg On My Head
02:27
|
|||
|
There's an egg on my head
While I stand on one leg
Thought that You would notice
Just glad You saw my face
I've sailed to all seven seas
I killed a wild beast
Thought You read about it
Just glad You know my name

Marry The World
03:15
|
|||
|
Stop the war, let's build a house
(Please) no more blood poured into the chalice
Make a friend while you're here
Be a friend to common (wo)men
Money comes and money goes
Money comes from trees that grow
Trees are always to be climbed
Words are always to be rhymed
I am laughing 'cause I know
Buried treasure is in all our minds
One beggar's plea is somebody's bargain
Marry the world, You have time
People take and people give
Some people just want to live
They don't care what you wear
They're more happy to be there

Sampson Ghost
02:02
|
|||
|
My name is Sampson Ghost, you see
But spare me yours, I have to flee
I ride straight toward the dawn most every night
To escape my troubles, I'm reclaiming my life
The wind is heavy, I still ride
With paltry food and candlelight
And for my life it is all a good deal
Because I am fleeing into the real
You've seen my face and now you know
The legend's true of Sampson Ghost
Go tell the town that Sampson Ghost still lives
But try to catch him and it may be your end

Handle My Fate
02:37
|
|||
|
Handle my day
Walk around, say a few things
Handle my self
Wake up and take care of my health
Handle my fate
Wait a while, let go of hate

Subsume The Officials
03:07
|
|||
|
Subsume the officials
Do it with manner well spent
This is act is too pertinent
To the matter at hand
At the hand of God
(Which) directs all of the land
To subsume the officials

Is That Your Real Name?
03:16
|
|||
|
Jesus, is that your real name?
But you are in my head, I know
Kindly askin' for the train
Of thought so you can be in frame
Devil, what is your real name?
But you are in my head, I know
Panhandlin' for the train
Of thought so you can hold the reigns
Body, you have a brain
You are more than all your limbs
You are much more than your name
You're freedom expressed and contained

Ode To The Bell Ringer
06:34
|
|||
|
"All that you own
It is not worth a cent
All that you know
Does not make any sense
All that you want
It will not set you free
All that you need
It hides so carefully"

I Found God
04:26
|
|||
|
I found God
At Mallory Park
Seven years old
Workin' concession
Her domino smile
makes all of us run
From tree to tree
She'll have all of us pegged
Fear within' we
Once in a while
I tend to forget
Everything is free
My body is tired
The tail of my mind
Someday will expire
God's face in between the big sleep
