I wonder if I can make a Monk laugh. I wonder if I can make a Monk spit out his chocolate milk through his nose I wonder if I can make a Monk accidentally break a vow of silence I wonder if I even have the heart to attempt such a thing It seems so cruel - those Monks are silent for a reason, a beautiful reason, and you can bet when one of those Monks doesn't speak for, say, a year or two, you can bet that God sits up and takes notice. You've got to appreciate shit like that.

Within the valley of shadowless death They pray for thunderclouds and rain, But to the multitude who stand in the rain Heaven is where the sun shines. The grass will be greener till the stems turn to brown And thoughts will fly higher till the earth brings them down. Forever caught in desert lands one has to learn To disbelieve the sea.

Im sick and tired of hearing things From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocritics All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth Ive had enough of reading things By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me With just a pocketful of hope Money for dope Money for rope
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me With just a pocketful of soap Money for dope Money for rope
Im sick to death of seeing things From tight-lipped, condescending, mamas little chauvinists All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth now
Ive had enough of watching scenes Of schizophrenic, ego-centric, paranoiac, prima-donnas All I want is the truth now Just gimme some truth
No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me With just a pocketful of soap Its money for dope Money for rope
Ah, Im sick and tired of hearing things From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocrites All I want is the truth now Just gimme some truth now
Ive had enough of reading things By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians All I want is the truth now Just gimme some truth now
All I want is the truth now Just gimme some truth now All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth

Now for you and me it may not be that hard to reach our dreams But that magic feeling never seems to last And while the futures there for anyone to change, still you know its seems It would be easier sometimes to change the past Im just one or two years and a couple of changes behind you In my lessons at loves pain and heartache school Where if you feel too free and you need something to remind you There's this loneliness springing up from your life Like a fountain from a pool
Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight
You've had to hide sometimes but now you're all right And its good to see your smiling face tonight
Fountain of sorrow, fountain of light You've known that hollow sound of your own steps in flight You've had to struggle, you've had to fight To keep understanding and compassion in sight You could be laughing at me, you've got the right But you go on smiling so clear and so bright
I noticed that too...Great song though.

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons, You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon, You're leaving there too soon.
It's so noisy at the fair But all your friends are there And the candy floss you had And your mother and your dad.
Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons, You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon, You're leaving there too soon.
There's a girl just down the aisle, Oh, to turn and see her smile. You can hear the words she wrote As you read the hidden note.
Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons, You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon, You're leaving there too soon.
Now you're underneath the stairs And you're givin' back some glares To the people who you met And it's your first cigarette.
Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons, You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon, You're leaving there too soon.
Now you say you're leavin' home 'Cause you want to be alone. Ain't it funny how you feel When you're findin' out it's real?
Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons, You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon, You're leaving there too soon.
Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain with the barkers and the colored balloons, You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon, You're leaving there too soon.

One of these days When you figure, figure it all out Well be sure to let me know Well I'll be waiting right here Come and whisper in my ear what it is I want to know One of these days, gonna get into it way on over our heads And you'll find that there's no place to hide But if you fight and if you fail, don't fall back into yourself You can fall back on me
One of these days When you figure it, figure it all out Put your lips against my ear Tell me it all Or tell me just a little bit, you know You know it's what I wanna hear
One of these days When you figure, figure it all out Well be sure to let me know Well I'll be waiting right here Come and whisper in my ear what it is I wanna know
One of these days When you figure, figure it all out Put your lips against my ear Tell me it all, Or tell me just a little bit, you know You know it's what I wanna hear

Johnnys always running around Trying to find certainty He needs all the world to confirm That he aint lonely Mary counts the walls Knows he tires easily
Johnny thinks the world would be right If it could buy truth from him Mary says he changes his mind more than a woman But she made her bed Even when the chance was slim
Johnny says hes willing to learn When he decides hes a fool Johnny says hell live anywhere When he earns to time Mary combs her hair Says she should be used to it Mary always hedges her bets She never knows what to think She says that he still acts Like he is being discovered Scared that hell be caught Without a second thought Running around
Johnny feels hes wasting his breath Trying to talk sense to her Mary says hes lacking a real Sense of proportion So she combs her hair Knows he tires easily
Johnnys always running around Trying to find certainty He needs all the world to confirm That he aint lonely Mary counts the walls Says she should be used to it
Johnnys always running around Running around

Well, I went home with the waitress The way I always do How was I to know She was with the Russians, too
I was gambling in Havana I took a little risk Send lawyers, guns and money Dad, get me out of this
I'm the innocent bystander Somehow I got stuck Between the rock and the hard place And I'm down on my luck And I'm down on my luck And I'm down on my luck
Now I'm hiding in Honduras I'm a desperate man Send lawyers, guns and money The shit has hit the fan
Send lawyers, guns and money...
