Lyrics/Paroles

Thru a field in southern France, singing songs to the plants, strode a wandering soul minstrel
Healing everyone’s wounds with his secular tunes, in a vow it became his vocation

This all happened long ago, as U may or not know, when knights sat at a round table
Back when Joan was the Pope and the Vatican did hope they could forever erase her memory

Lalala, lala, lala… I’ll sing to U sweet daisy; oh to know thy love fair lady

With an illustrious pen he declared once again, beside the great Carmina Burana…
Je suis un Goliard et les regles de mon art m’ont guide sur la route de mes reves, m’ont permis de poursuivre mes reves… et la vie ce n’est qu’un reve

Public opinion, old allegation
Hold onto your hat as U enter the station
Let them all read U like an open book
U don’t have to tell them where they should look

All private life and trial by fire
Go there to find your deepest desire
All private life and trial by fire
Banish all fear of tripping the wire

Sometimes, U’ve got to let it all hang out, before U start to begin
Sometimes U’ve got to let it all hang out, if U want to reel it all back in

Follow the Phoenix into the flames
Imagine the heat that can melt away chains
Natural cycle, U will suffer some strife
Then U will rise up to the rest of your life

U immortal life and trial by fire, beautiful soul with all U aspire…

Diamonds of nature
Born in the rough
U know I did love it when U said off the cuff
I’d suffered enough (I’d suffered enough)

Sometimes U’ve got to let it all hang out before U start to begin
Sometimes U’ve got to let it all hang out if U want to reel it all back in

Look out down below
There’s something that U don’t know
Look up into the skies
U’ve got to use your eagle eyes

Show me what I need to know
Lead me where I got to go
There’s wisdom for the wise
But U gotta use your eagle eyes

Some birds are born to be eagles
Baby we were born to fly
Some birds are born to be eagles
Gonna build it up,  gonna rise it high

Look out up ahead
What U see is what U get
Come on and recognize
What U’ve done is visualize

The eagle sees I will attest
The north needs the south like the east needs the west
The north needs the south like the east needs the west
There is no room for hate
These words I contemplate

Some birds are born to be eagles
Baby we were born to fly
Some birds are born to be eagles
Gonna build it up
Gonna rise it high

I woke up this morning
Could’ve sworn there was nothing to do
With the feeling I had gone ahead, caused some kind of big SNAFU
Wishing I was off the hook, don’t care whether I win or I lose
Almost start believing I’d be better off if I couldn’t choose

I get that old FUBAR feeling, old FUBAR feeling, makes me almost feel like stealing way back home, way back home

I woke up this morning didn’t feel so much for soldiering on
Go about another day, sing another hurtin’ song
Overcome with doubt thinking my heart’s start to bleed
Caught up in my own self-inflicted case of combat fatigue

I get that old FUBAR feeling, old FUBAR feeling, makes me almost feel like stealing way back home
If the sun don’t shine tomorrow would I be free from all my sorrow, would I be free but where on earth would that leave U..?

Still I get that old FUBAR feeling, makes me almost feel like stealing way back home… way back home.

We’re all in this together
We’re all a part of one
We are a massive many
Weaving webs of Love

Put a bullet in the head to get the day off work but instead U might just wonder now what am I going to do..?
There was a time when I might have cried as if my best friend had suddenly died
The saddest time I think I ever knew
Then boredom’s gonna try and start creeping in eclipsing all the joy that I find within
What was the feeling to play for the love of the game..?
I love the way U sum it up,  I love the way U fill your cup
Is it half empty or tell me U made it half full

And I will need some shelter from the storm and I will need to keep my body warm
Let’s stay awhile whatever comes to be… carry on together fighting accidie

Made up my mind I would use no profanity or talk of the suicidal sinkhole of humanity
No ruminating upon the state of the slump just to tell the herd up ahead is a buffalo jump
Because boredom wants to try and start creeping in eclipsing all the joy that I find within
Beware of sadness it leads U straight to despair
I love the way U sum it up, I love the way U fill your cup
Is it half empty or tell me you’ve made it half full

And I will need some shelter from the storm and I will need to keep my body warm
Let’s stay awhile whatever comes to be carry on together fighting accidie

We all should be ecstatic and grateful to the bone
We are a massive many,  we’re on our way back home

When the birch tree takes its shade of winter
It ain’t grey no U could say it’s silver
Can U see how it shines as upwards it climbs..?
It ain’t grey U could say it is silver

And I think I must make a correction
Or the world might face a detention
When a brand new election makes U lose your erection
Like a flag pole awash on the sea
And ten thousand monkeys agree

And if ten thousand monkeys agree
That there’s more that a monkey can be
When there’s no more denying the numbers are climbing
And ten thousand monkeys agree
That we are not monkeys are we

And I think in these times of reflection
And I feel these are times of exception
When a spiritual defection starts a worldwide rejection
Like a flag pole awash on the sea
And ten thousand monkeys agree

So when the birch tree takes its shade of winter
It ain’t grey no U could say it’s silver
Can U see how it shines through the darkest of times
It ain’t grey U could say it is silver

I went underground in Spanish caves
Mother Nature’s bounty appeared in waves
Following the sequence of three to six to nine
I heard these days were coming it must be time

The Currency of Kindness will get U anywhere… the Currency of Kindness residual affair

There I was in Paris with the world at my feet
Not the least embarrassed as I smiled on the street
Ripples are contagious U can fire for effect
The only ones that miss out will be the ones that neglect

Ca fait longtemps, me semble t’il
Je me sentais pas tellement virile
Mais hier soir, j’ai eu de l’effet
D’une demoiselle et ca me plait
Nos yeux se seront croises
Lors d’une soiree de musique country
Cette deesse, que j’ai vue hier, dans une salle communautaire

Ca fait longtemps je dirais que
Je me sentais pas tellement heureux
Mais hier soir, je t’ai vue alle
Maintenant je me sens energise
Et quelle beaute que c’est la vie
Quand les gens sont reunis
Et dansent en ligne et se tiennent en rond
Dans ce patelin c’est ca qu’ils font…
Oh, je t’ai vu hier soir a namur

Oh je t’ai vu, la belle musique
Vetu de bleu si pacifique
Tu souriais je me souviens
Est-ce que tu veux de mon soutien
Et bienvenue tous les amis
Par la musique nous sommes unis
Dansons en ligne ensuite un slow
Se caresser c’est ca qu’il faut…
Oh.., je t’ai vu hier soir a namur

It’s your Hip-Ass Combination, said Adam to Eve, it turns me on honey everytime that U leave.
Come on back woman show me more more more, it happens everytime I see U walk thru the door

It’s your Hip-Ass Combination, U know Juliet, Romeo says come on give him all he can get
Turn around honey show him more more more, it happens everytime he sees U walk thru the door

I say, My God, ain’t it sweet, how she sweeps me off my aching feet and I’m sitting on an ejector seat, hold on baby let’s go

It’s your Hip-Ass Combination, U know ELOISE, you’ve got your teacher ABELARD right down on his knees
Come on back honey show him more more more, it happens everytime he sees U stand in the door

I say My God ain’t it sweet, she’s my total body stress delete and I’m sitting on an ejector seat, hold on baby let’s go
