I was gonna sing you a song... I was gonna sing you a song, but I got too nervous. I was gonna sing you a song, but you're doing yoga. I was gonna sing you a song, but you have my guitar. I was gonna sing you a song... I was gonna sing you a song, but you have some issues. I was gonna sing you a song, but I have some issues. I was gonna sing you a song, but you took my breath away.

Why'd you make me? Will you take me? Why couldn't it be yesterday? When I was new, when my soul grew in a big, bright and shiny way. When the day comes. When the day comes. Be it all that, but any way. Come after me like it's every day. I suppose what I mean to say: Be a big change in every way. When the day comes. When the day comes. The solution, resolution, all along what you always say. When I listen to the vision to the kind of me you mean to make. Up to me, I know the way. You come for me likes it's every day. I suppose what I mean to say: Be a big change in every way. I'll follow. I'll follow. I'll follow. I'll follow. You. See the day break. See my soul wake. To a new, fresh and open slate. Let myself in. Let the good win. Don't even give me a say. When the day comes. When the day comes. When the day comes. When the day comes...

The Monkey 05:26
If you think that people are funny, honey, everybody knows it's true. If you think that justice is funny, honey, you might as well have made the rules. It's the same thing as telling a story you know's not true. It's all from a dream. It's all from a dream. La, la, la, la, la... The truth, it's a colorful story and you... Got all of us feeling blue, blue. If you think, 'Data-shmayda!', honey, you might as well avoid the truth. It's the same thing as telling a story you know's not true. Everybody loves the sunshine. Everybody's 'bout to lose their minds. The monkey managed to steal. The monkey's big reveal. If you think that people are funny, honey, everybody knows it's true. It's the same thing as telling a story you know's not true. Everybody loves the sunshine. Everybody's 'bout to lose their minds. The monkey's so obscene. The monkey's you and me. If you think that people are funny, honey, everybody knows it's true. If you like to think like a monkey, honey, you might as well have bought a zoo. It's the same thing as telling a story you know's not true. It's the same thing as telling a story you know's not true. It's all a dream. It's all a dream. La, la, la, la, la. La, la, la, la, la. La, la, la, la, la.

(The rules we made are bending great, so far) I cannot understand, understand. How are we here again? He said, "You know you're dying, dear?" I know... He said that no one's trying, dear. I know... We don't wanna know. If only we'd grow... We don't wanna grow. The rules we made are bending great, so far. Men estranged, it's ll the rage so far. I cannot understand, understand. How are we here again? What's crazy here, our conscience clear... Who knows? I can see your house from here. I know... We don't wanna change. Be the change. We don't wanna change. Be the change. Be the change.

We can have a say We can make a change Do you mean it? We can change this place We can talk of race Do you mean it? All the others say, "In a couple of moments". "In a couple of moments". "In a couple of moments". We can lead with grace We can take the place Can you feel it? We can have a say We can make a change Can you feel it? All the others say, "In a couple of moments". "In a couple of moments". "In a couple of moments". We can change and rearrange. All the others say, "In a couple of moments". "In a couple of moments". "In a couple of moments". Look into the eyes of someone God loves him. We can run this race We can break the pace Do you mean it? We can learn our place We can show our face Do you mean it? All the others say, "In a couple of moments". "In a couple of moments". "In a couple of moments".

I'll Fall 03:31
I and I try to open all the jars. Rags and knives, it's ever, ever, ever hard. I'll fall if ever you fall. I and I try to climb the highest highs. Learn to walk, to love what I already have. I'll fall if ever you fall. I'll fall, and that's where you come. Jars and jars and highest highs, There before you, go I. Your hair and skin and magic heart, It's all the things that you are. I and I try to climb the highest highs. Learn to walk, to love what I already have.

Imagine there's a reason. Would you have a try? What if all these people cared to wonder why? Paint yourself on the ceiling. Hang yourself out to dry. What if all these people got out in time? 'Cause it's not like we're all in this. It's not like we don't care. Find the time and make it, here and everywhere. Tell yourself a story. It's right before your eyes. Imagine there's no reason for goodbye's. Take it all in a moment. Take the rest of your life. Breathe and know you're living and doing fine. 'Cause it's not like we're all in this. It's not like we don't care. Find the time and make it, here and everywhere. You know, it's gone in a glance... Taking a chance in life. In life. It's almost time... In a couple of moments. In a couple of moments. In a couple of moments!
