lyrics

Put your human feet on the ground / Put your human hand on the ground / Put your human ear to the ground LISTEN TO THE SOUND / I don’t care what the news do say / I don’t care what the hipster say / I care what the feeling say, LISTEN TO THE SOUND / Mama been there – she was talking you / Papa been there, he was walkin through. / Dreams and air in the morning true / He know what we all been through / You gon[na] come to know it too / You already know it’s true / Remember when you laughed so hard it felt like you were poking through? /

[CHORUS]
LISTEN TO THE SOUND OF THE DIVINE /
LISTEN, YOUR WHOLE BODY GLISTENS .... /

Duck down into the secret passage / Arcs and arches whispers language / Birds fly down, alight on your crown, wisdom ain’t the same thing as knowledge / I want wisdom, I want wisdom, I want to be free from prison / I want to be young forever / I want to be old and happy / Swipe my card let me tell my story / Pay my bill, lemme spill my glory / Won’t waste my time on nobody, I’m sorry / Gotta get high NOW, good bye golly / Climb the mountain I climbed, if you wanna / Listen to my magic on the Fields of Honour / Christen and glisten, you got me kissin on the mission of my soul, not off, never cough, just fly, through the blue of the sky, so you, on a high, it’s a cloud of perfect white, fluff-nuff-bye-hi! ... /

CHORUS ... /

We are movement, we are atoms, we are vibing in vibration / We are human, we react and we don’t belong to no nation / We are servants, we are working, we are making Him our purpose / We are purple, we are blueple, we are galaxy-see-people / We are honest, we are open, we be eagles, we are smoking / We are dripping, we are hoping , we are tripping, we are sloping / We are dogs, we are fountains, racoons, coyote mountains / We are fountains AND absurd, we are green meem paradise birds / ...... /

Orbiting the sun, swimming in a sphere, round and round we all run, always trying to get near / We all gotta revolve around someone / We all gotta revolve around someone, practice on your mum, practice on your lover one, practice on your baby, practice with the Saints who don’t ask you for no money, who never say ‘maybe’...
