I grew from monkey into man,
|
Then I crushed 15 million with a wave of my hand.
|
I grew drunk on water turned into wine,
|
'Till I was slave and master at the same damn time.
|
|
It's why I am.
|
It's why I am.
|
Why I am, still here dancing with the GrooGrux King.
|
|
Out of my head and into the room hello.
|
A king of men, it makes no sense.
|
Oh and I bow to the Priest, while I worship the Witch.
|
|
But it's why I am,
|
Always the only one to make you smile.
|
Why I am, I'm still a snake in the wood pile.
|
It's why I am, still here dancing with the GrooGrux King
|
|
Out of my head and into the room.
|
So when my ghost takes me from you.
|
You can remember the fool that I am.
|
Don't cry baby,
|
Don't cry.
|
|
It's the lose and the win of the world.
|
Wrong and right,
|
Us and them of the world.
|
It's the you and the me of the world.
|
But, Only one way out of the world.
|
|
It's the lose and the win of the world.
|
Wrong and right,
|
Us and them of the world.
|
It's the you and the me of the world.
|
Only one way out of the world.
|
|
It's why I am, unlikely to agree.
|
It's why I am, climbin' out of my monkey tree.
|
Why I am, still here dancing with the GrooGrux King.
|
We'll be drinking Big Whiskey while we dance and sing.
|
And when my story ends it's gonna end with him.
|
Heaven or hell I'm going there with the GrooGrux King.
|
|
Why I am, the apple of your pretty eye.
|
Why I am, a snake in the wood pile.
|
Why I am, still here dancing with the GrooGrux King.
|
|
Out of my head and into the room.
|
So when my ghost takes me from you.
|
You can remember the fool that I am.
|
Don't cry baby,
|
Don't cry.
