Tell me who was it told you 'bout the broken bones
|
The broken bones in the sky
|
'Cause I've been all over the whole goddamn world
|
And over the world am I
|
|
Now the moon it ain't nothing but an old rotten bone
|
Hung from the ceiling so high
|
It reminds kids to grow and reminds them to dream
|
But over the world am I
|
|
So my friends if you're worried
|
Don't worry about me
|
The grasses are green here
|
The winters are mild
|
And the hunger is passing
|
It's just a sensation
|
And over the world am I
|
|
Up in the city it's panic and toil
|
In every fiber and vein
|
All dressed up like kings in their robes of desire
|
The poets are going insane
|
|
But I've been to the ocean her salts they do heal
|
And washed me anew in her tides
|
And now I ride easy down her cool wide waves
|
And over the world am I
|
