Well I talk to the animals day after day
And together we figure it out
Yeah we meet by the bramble bush down by the stream
And discuss their concerns and their doubts
Well I don’t know what I’m looking for
But it sure don’t have two legs
This is no sad sorry metaphor
This is no sad soft pretence
These are the creatures above and beyond my integrity
Forging ahead when the corporates are dead
Once the Sun’s up, we’ll meet by the river and
Once we’re tooled up, we’ll stand and deliver
Gonna leave their cold confusion far behind
But who needs a gun or a military base
I want a friend for life, with just the one face
Gonna leave their comprehension far behind
Well I walk with the animals mile after mile
And together we strike up a deal
We don’t hound or harass, we don’t mimic or grass
We just happily graze in the fields
Well I don’t know what I’m looking for
But it sure don’t speak your language
With a trusty silent herbivore
You can live without such anguish
These are the creatures above and beyond my integrity
Forging ahead when the fat cats are dead
Once the Sun’s up, we’ll meet by the river and
Once we’re tooled up, we’ll stand and deliver
Gonna leave their cold confusion far behind
Sometimes I find myself mesmorized by the greatest hell I’ve ever seen
The greatest stampede
But who wants to stand and fight, all I want is a friend for life
And now it starts to ring
This is such a hippy thing, this is such a hippy thing
Once the Sun’s up, we’ll meet by the river and
Once we’re tooled up, we’ll stand and deliver
Gonna leave their cold confusion far behind
But who needs a gun or a military base
I want a friend for life, with just the one face
Gonna leave their comprehension far behind
Standing in a field is just not quite as strange as what you do
