Of all us he had to know he'd never grow
|
He'd never climb he'd never love like the love I know
|
When I was two and he was ten they carried me
|
Through holograms they twisted into cosmic seas
|
|
Once was born of light like you
|
Once was one but now am two
|
When I was born of love like you
|
When you were ten and I was two
|
|
There were two monkeys talkin' sounding like little dogs
|
They were barking and bitching about what was wrong
|
In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride
|
The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines singing
|
We all we all we all turn on we all we all we all turn off
|
|
If gather is all you need to change the wind
|
For anything to die it needs first to begin
|
|
Once was born of light like you
|
Once was one but now am two
|
When I was born of love like you
|
When you were ten and I was two
|
|
There were two monkeys talkin' sounding like little dogs
|
They were barking and bitching about what was wrong
|
In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride
|
The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines singing
|
We all we all we all turn on we all we all we all turn off in time
|
|
Saw your future is not burning so bright
|
But if we live too long you'll live less like mine
|
|
We all we all we all turn on we all we all we all turn off
|
|
There were two monkeys talkin' sounding like little dogs
|
They were barking and bitching about what was wrong
|
In the world we were just spacemen taking a ride
|
The gorilla's in his human suit reciting his lines singing
|
We all we all we all turn on we all we all we all turn off in time
|
|
If human breed hate love and lies would be traits of mine
|
But I was of the future past and present time
|
|
Once was born of light like you
|
Once was one but now am two
|
When I was born of love like you
|
When you were ten and I was two
|
