All Of The Above
As I get older, I keep writing simpler and simpler songs. That could mean that I'm tracking Charlie Gordon of Flowers for Algernon fame. Or, far less dramatically and thus more likely, that I'm just finally calming down a smidge.
Lyrics:
I've never been stung by a bee
Never had a skunk turn tail and threaten me
But I'd go to the woods with you
If we startle a moose
I'll feed him chocolate brownies while
You negotitate a truce
We'll have fun in the woods,
You and me
If this is a dream, where are the spiders,
If this is a joke, where is the horse?
If this is a test, I'll take choice D,
'All of the above' 'cause it rhymes with us
I've never had rock star hair
The kind that falls into your eyes
Like the guy's from the Old '97s
But I would sing for you
When we select our song
I'll sing the lead, and you can take the harmony
We can switch from the verse to the chorus
You'll take the weather with you
If this is a joke, then where's the drummer?
If this is a dream, then what happened to Jewel?
If this is a test, I'll take choice D
'All of the above' 'cause it rhymes with us
I've never had a lot of faith
I never believe it when the Holy Virgin shows her
Face on a piece of toast or an underpass
Somewhere in the heart of Peru
Now that I've met you,
I believe in spontaneous combustion
Just 'cause I can't explain it
Doesn't mean it can't be true
I have faith in you
If this was a joke, where's the rabbi?
If this was a dream, where's John Paul II?
If this was a test, I'll take choice D
'All of the above' 'cause it rhymes with us
