lyrics

this is my autobiography, although it may seem premature
everything that’s gonna happen to me already passed my door
every sweet love affair, every triumph every shame
the colors explode, and when they clear
no no, they do not stain
I think you know what I mean

and in the words of my mother, a good man uses his humility
and in the words of my lover, baby just give me what I need
and in the words of my father, don’t think too much of status and wealth
the bad man might reap profit and praise
but the good man meets with the lord himself

I keep trying to believe
all the lullabies ever sung to me

and in the words of S P Taylor, everybody knows it’s too late
and in the words of my sister, Evie’s birthday’s on the 28th
and in the words of Stephen Biko, either you’re proud or you’re dead
it’s in the moves of Muhammad Ali, if you live on earth, you got to pay the rent
yeah if you live on earth, you got to pay, I think you know what I mean

momentary euphoria, hypnotised in the dance of death
everybody is looking around, tryin’ to find what he does best
and in the words of my daughter, daddy why’d you bring me here?
I guess I’m craving something that will never disappear
