Driftin' Back

Hey now now, hey now now I'm drifting back Hey now now, hey now now I'm drifting back Dreaming about the way things sound now Write about them in my book Worry that you can't hear me now And feel the time I took To help you feel this feeling Let you ride along Dreaming about the way you feel now When you hear my song I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back In my meditation I block out all my thoughts When they come back I push them out Like Jesus had a rock They pushed in front of this cave now They rolled across the ground Hey now now, hey now now They rolled across the ground I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back Here's how I got my mantra Gave them thirty-five bucks now Gave it to the Maharishi It went to the organization Excuse my religion Dreaming 'bout the way things feel now Write it in my book Blocking out all the thoughts now I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back Hey now now, hey now now I'm drifting back Hey now now, hey now now I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I used to dig Picasso I used to dig Picasso Hey now now, hey now now I used to dig Picasso Then the big tech giant came along And turned him into wallpaper Hey now now, hey now now I used to dig Picasso I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back Don't want my MP3 Don't want my MP3 I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back When you hear my song now You only get five percent You used to get it all You used to get it all Blocking out my anger Blocking out my thoughts Blocking out my anger now Blocking out my thoughts I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back Going to get me a hip-hop haircut Going to get a hip-hop haircut Going to get a hip-hop haircut Hey now now, hey now now Hey now now, hey now now Blocking out my anger Finding my religion I might be a pagan I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back I'm drifting back

I still like to sing a happy song Once in a while and things go wrong I might pick up a pen, scribble on a page Try to make sense of my inner rage One cold winter we went down south With daddy's typewriter for a couple of months And I was born in Ontario I was born in Ontario Ontario, Ontario, Ontario I was born in Ontario Where the black fly bites And the green grass grows That's where I learned most of what I know Cause you don't learn much When you start to get old I left home at a tender young age Cause mom and daddy never liked to stay In any one place for very long We just kept moving, moving on I was born in Ontario I was born in Ontario Ontario, Ontario, Ontario

For The Love Of Man

For the love of man Who could understand what goes on What is right and what is wrong Why the angels cry, and the heavens sigh When a child is born to live But not like you or I Let the angels ring the bells In the holy halls May they hear the voice that calls to them For the love of man, who will understand It's alright I know it's alright Down the dusty road To the forest church. Let me wander there Let me wonder why On the ocean wave. In the billowing sky Let me wander there Let me wonder why Let the angels ring the bells In the holy halls May they hear the voice that calls to them For the love of man, who will understand It's alright But I wonder why I wonder why I wonder why

... The tracks ahead were long and straight We were riding on the desert wind We were pulling in the spiritual Riding on the desert wind We can see it in the distance Getting closer every minute We saw the lights of spiritual shining Getting closer every minute Then we skipped the rails And we started to fail And we folded up And it's not enough To think about how close we came I wanna walk like a giant on the land I wanna walk like a giant on the land Whenever I see the big fire coming Coming to burn down all my ideas I try to hold to my thinking Remember how it feels When I'm looking right in your eyes Seeing your blue eyes shining Hearing your happy laughing Seeing your blue eyes shining So the moment came And the big sky rained And it put out the fire Except in my desire To think about how close we came I wanna walk like a giant on the land I wanna walk like a giant on the land I used to walk like a giant on the land Now I feel like a leaf floating in a stream I used to walk like a giant I used to walk like a giant on the land
