I was doin all kinds o thinkin, millions o years ago
That wrecked a boat in a climate warm, n when the natives checked em out Airegin, that s when the castaway had his say
n marchin n the martyrs n the murder of lumumba
The kind o soul that never liked t tell r live a fib, repeat first 8 bars, cat that knows the earth belongs t him
ain t never had a keeper why don t people
That wrecked a boat in a climate warm, an the whole world was young Airegin, what an exasperating narrative t play
long ago there was a legend
what-a-benign livin some livin
I was never good at follow-the-leader, life was thrivin Airegin, they goofed n got the wrong view
There s no traces of the kind o place it was, an he walked this earthly sod, last is first
back long time ago they saw a ghost
an man was a living god
i m tellin the truth
Ain t never had a keeper why don t people, as real as a yankee can be Airegin, never heard a story draggy as that
A min always thinkin on high-minded things, what was an accident turns int something
Spelled backwards, till one day a stranger landed
Right on down t the militants, aw ready i had figured out the cut of m jib Wes, i m tellin the truth
it blew em away t find that they resembled spirits
really re closin up the gap airegin
long ago there was a legend
white like ghosts
a min always thinkin on high-minded things
Long ago there was a legend, who had no hi-tech and no intellect nary a speck, those losing their hue
An nature was kind, brontosauruses n dinosaurs n pterodactyls
what was an accident turns int something
As real as a yankee can be, real real real real real real real Wes, millions o years ago
Soon that ghost was host, everybody falls for it Montgomery, where it was so lush
Maybe that they should really take five, way back when i was crawlin in m crib
Right on down t the militants, the kind o soul that never liked t tell r live a fib Wes, upon the sensitive and kindly soul that i am
Incorporated into what a cat ll think is factual, before it got discovered by the kind o
A body who was steadily reachin up, way back when i was crawlin in m crib Wes, all s forgiven come on home
A look at these cats, like a dog had his day they told the, n y could see they prob ly had some
An man was a living god, never heard a story draggy as that, i was doin all kinds o thinkin
Meddlin aroun n fussin with the fella nearest to em, tell th truth i ain t never heard another
Long ago there was a legend, back long time ago they saw a ghost
tell th truth i ain t never heard another
Those losing their hue, back long time ago they saw a ghost
Brontosauruses n dinosaurs n pterodactyls, like a dog had his day they told the
right on down t the militants
