Amen (Remastered LP Version[00:00:00]
Written by:Paula Cole[00:00:00]
I'm siphoning gass from the high school bus[00:00:23]
Into the tank of my beat-up bug[00:00:26]
So I can drive away from the shouting and misery[00:00:29]
I drive into the night to the hill to the water tower[00:00:36]
To lie on my back and drink in the meteor shower[00:00:41]
Knowing that many men have lain as I do now[00:00:47]
Ptolemy Copernicus Carl Jung Pondering his existence[00:00:52]
Pondering Is God with me now[00:00:56]
And I look to the sky And I ask these questions[00:01:06]
Yes I feel something I don't understand[00:01:13]
Can somebody say Amen[00:01:24]
My life is but a short and precious seed[00:01:42]
Like three seasons of life in a leaf on a tree[00:01:46]
And when I cascade to the ground I will not be done[00:01:50]
I will mingle with the earth and give life[00:01:57]
To the roots again[00:02:00]
Can somebody say Amen[00:02:04]
And I look to the sky And I ask these questions[00:02:12]
Yes I feel something I don't understand[00:02:19]
Can somebody say Amen[00:02:30]
Amen for the drivers in their garbage trucks[00:02:51]
Amen for our mothers for the lust to f**k[00:02:53]
Amen for the child with innocent eyes[00:02:56]
Amen for Kevorkian and the right to die[00:02:59]
Amen for NASA The NSA It's all a front anyway[00:03:03]
Amen for Marilyn Manson Saddam Hussein[00:03:10]
Amen for America and the Milky Way[00:03:13]
Amen for Elvis for Betty Page[00:03:17]
Amen for Gloria Steinham and Ronald Reagan[00:03:21]
Amen for OJ Clinton too[00:03:25]
Amen for the Republican witch hunt coup[00:03:28]
Amen for Gandhi for Malcolm X[00:03:32]
Amen for the uprising of the weaker sex[00:03:36]
Amen for Babylon the third world's call[00:03:39]
Amen for the unity of us all[00:03:43]
Amen Amen Amen[00:03:47]
And I am not unique[00:04:17]
We are all leave on this great big tree[00:04:18]
This tree that is life that is God that is you that is me[00:04:23]
And I lie under my tree like the Buddhas before and after me[00:04:30]
And I ask the stars What for[00:04:35]
Yes I feel something I can't explain[00:04:38]
A light that flickers off and on again[00:04:42]
And I look to the sky And I ask these questions[00:04:49]
Yes I feel something I don't understand[00:04:56]
Oh can somebody say Amen[00:05:07]
