Mom and Dad we're right Greed will never get anything When you see the light you'll feel Like you want to fly There's birds in the sky And the trees will sing And the world looks mighty good to me The world is out of sight And now you can't touch anything But when you see the light you'll feel Like you're out of time So just leave it all behind And go quietly I guess I'll never know what's in store for me I feel that I'm not the same I bought some beads And I changed my name to Yahweh I wear the robes of a Taoist sage I am the helper of the ogre mage Why do people fight? Why does life mean anything? When you know that you are doomed to die Maybe that's all right, maybe that's why I cry tears of joy When I think about the way the world Is gonna fade from sight I feel that I'm not the same My body's gone And I changed my name to Karma I'm comin' down like Georgia rain I got to go to my dyin' day in nirvana I wanna tell 'em what I can't explain I got to tell 'em not to be afraid Wanna tell 'em in the end that there is no pain 'Cause when you see the light You're gonna rise like a lion, up into the sky While the world around you dies
