Little white lie's been around for years
Little white lie's ringing in your ears
You turn around come around back on you
Well, that little white lie's catching up to you

(Little white lie) Say what you got to
(Little white lie) Come back to haunt you
(Little white lie) You got one, you got two
(Little white lie) Ooh

Head like a box, got legs that crawl
My ears can see, I'm a fly on the wall
I got bones that feel, eyes that touch
Yeah, you're falling in deep 'cause you're talkin' too much

(Little white lie) Say what you got to
(Little white lie) Come back to haunt you
(Little white lie) Got one, you got two
(Little white lie) Come 'round to back you
(Little white lie) Caught in the vacuum
(Little white lie) Come back to haunt you
(Little white lie) Say what you got to
(Little white lie) Do what you gotta do
(Little white lie) Say what you want to
(Little white lie) Come back to haunt you
(Little white lie) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Flip top, box top got to keep 'em buzzing, whoo
Got 'em by the ear, got 'em by the dozen
Shut 'em up, cover up, got to distract them
Yeah, you know you're gonna get a psychotic reaction, wooh

(Little white lie) Say what you got to
(Little white lie) Come back to haunt you
(Little white lie) You got one, you got two
(Little white lie) Come 'round to back you
(Little white lie) Say what you want to
(Little white lie) Come back to haunt you
(Little white lie) Caught in the vacuum
(Little white lie) Come 'round to back you
(Little white lie) Yeah
(Little white lie) Yeah
(Little white lie) Yeah
(Little white lie)

I wasn't worried
I walked into the room
I saw the serpant's shadow
Against a silver moon
And they said as long as you believe
You'll be alright

And I wasn't worried
Till I saw one bite
You could touch, you could feel
You could smell them all through the night
Oh, but as long as you believe, you're gonna be alright
Or you'll be running, running for your life

But I didn't worry
When I caught the spell
I saw the eyes, saw the teeth, beads of sweat
Think I'd gone to hell
But just as long as you believe
A snake won't bite
Or you'll be running, running for your life

But I've gotta tell you
Power over snakes, ooh
It sure makes me feel so different
From a cane break
And just as long as you believe
A snake won't bite, yeah

Taking up serpents
Can take your life
They stuck my hand down in there
Without a bite
Oh, just as long as you believe, oh
You'll be alright
I should be running, running for my life

Yeah, oh, I didn't tell you
About the one that got bit
On the face, on the arms, 'tween the legs
On the back of the neck

Oh, you see, he didn't believe
The boy didn't believe
I said he didn't believe
He didn't believe
And just as long as you believe, a snake won't bite

See, I didn't worry
'Cause the snake won't bite
Snakes won't bite, ah
And the snake won't bite

. . .


Here's a message from the heart, are you listening?
Some things belong to you and no one else
Oh, one more life is taken and that's one more than God allows
And there's another on the row shouting out

Who has the right?

And there's a war out in the streets
That no one is winning
Tell me when did a human life become so cheap

And how can we take away
What we did not create?
Beyond the power of the conscience
Beyond the power of the state
Tell me who, who has the right?
Well, no one has the right

Everyone's a victim, everyone's to blame
And we are all so different, yet the same
Oh, and everyone's the master of their own destiny
As long as one of us is chained, none of us are free

Oh, how can we take away
What we did not create?
Beyond the power of the conscience
Beyond the power of the state
Tell me who, who has the right?
Well, no one has the right

Oh, how can we take away
What we did not create?
Beyond the power of the conscience
Beyond the power of the state
Tell me who, who has the right?
Well, no one has the right

Are we making a mistake here?
Well, there's no room for that

Who has the right?
No one has the right
Who has the right?
They don't have the right

Who has the right?
No one has the right
Who has the right?
We don't have the right

Who has the right?
Oh, no, the right
Who has the right?
They don't have the right

Who has the right?
No one has the right
Who has the right?
Oh no, oh no, we don't have the right

. . .


Would you do it for love?
Would you do it for pride?
If you gave it away
Woud you be satisfied?

On your hands and knees, wooh
When the price is right, yeah
Oh, you say you believe
But baby, would you stand up and fight? Oh

I think you better ask yourself
Before you criticize me
Are you a victim of the system
Or the powers that be?

If there was nothing to gain, hey
Would you do it for free?
Yeah, would you do it for me?

Give it away in the bedroom
What you sell in the street, yeah
You spend a fortune on rags, wooh
And strip it down to the beat, oh

I think you better ask yourself
Before you criticize me
Are you a victim of the system
Or the powers that be?

If there was nothing to gain, hey
Would you do it for free?
Ask yourself
Would you do it for me?

Baby, uh, yeah
Uh, do it, for free
Hey, uh, yeah

Are you in love with what you do?
Are you satisfied?
Is your heart straight and true?
Or did money make you tell that cold faced lie?

I think you better ask yourself
Before you criticize me
Are you a victim of the system
Or the powers that be?

If there was nothing to gain, hey hey
Would you do it for free?
Yeah, would you do it for me?
Do it for free, do it for free
Baby, would you do it for free?

(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

Are you satisfied?
Don't tell that cold, cold lie
Do it for free, do it for free, do it for free oh baby
Do it for free, do it for free, do it for free do it for me
Do it for free, do it for free, do it for free uh
Do it for free, do it for free
Do it, do it, do it, do it for me

Wooh
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Are you in love with what you do?
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Do it for free
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it

. . .



I feel this all came really soon
Like leaving the warmth of the womb
Read my thoughts as I'm hanging there
I wonder is this going to take us anywhere

Why doesn't love take us anywhere
It burns so hot then it disappears

And fear doesn't taste like what it used to be
I felt so all alone
Why don't you hold me some
Hold me some, While I bleed
Yeah

Now my body's got some cross to bear
Every cross has somebody hanging there

Everybody's got their bottom line

Oh bring 'em on down
Bring 'em on down

Yeah

Why doesn't loove take you anywhere
It burns so hot like on an electric chair

And fear doesn't taste like what it used to be
Anymore

Now my body's got some cross to bear
And every cross has somebody hanging there

Everyone has their bottom line

Oh oh oh oh. Bring 'em on down
Bring 'em on down to me

And I feel so all alone
Why don't you hold me some
Hold me some


. . .


Today, love takes on a whole new meaning
In a face I know I've seen somewhere before, oh yeah
And somehow the mystery is over, yet just begun
To see the most perfect thing
Together, we've ever done

Oh, so what do we call this miracle we've made?
And how can I find one word to say it? Oh yeah
When all I'm feeling here and now is love
So that will always be you, Kama

Today, I just wrote a song about you
And the words, they flow just like the air I breathe, oh yeah
The closest I've ever been to truly understanding
The closest we'll ever be
To the meaning of life so sacred

Oh, so what do we call this miracle we've made?
And how can I find one word to say it? Oh yeah
When all I'm feeling here and now is love
So that will always be you, Kama

And every language has a word
But the meaning is always the same
Oh, love is all you've got to start out in the world
And love is all that remains, oh yeah

Oh yeah, so what do we call this miracle we've made?
And how can I find one word to say it? Oh yeah
When all I'm feeling here and now is love
So that will always be you, Kama

Oh yeah (What do we call this miracle?)
(How can I find one word to say it?)
(When all I'm feeling here and now is love)
Kama

. . .


Yeah, come on, uh

Well I, I got my friends
And I don't need more friends
I can count my friends on both hands

Came an evil man and he cut off one hand
Now I count my friends on the other hand
Yeah, on the other hand
Oh, well

Was an evil man, money on his mind
He don't want chump change
He want the big kind
Yeah, he want the big kind

Wooh, oh well

Well, I got my friends
And I don't need more friends
Long as I can count my friends on both hands

Yeah, but on the other hand
Uh, on the other hand
But on the other hand
I can count my friends on the other hand
Wooh
Oh, well

. . .


There's another side to everything
Connected like the ring around your finger
And I know this like I know myself
Not very well, yet I'm no stranger

But it won't be long
I see both sides now

When nothing's gained, then something's lost
Pay half the price at twice the cost
We're crystallized, we stand alone
Conviction holds us like a stone, oh yeah

But I know it won't be long
'Cause I see both sides now

Yeah, we got to learn how to listen before we learn to talk
We got to learn how to crawl before we learn to walk
And if you want a little peace, sometimes you got to fight
We got to walk through the darkness, oh
Before we stand in the light, oh yeah

But I know it won't be long
I see both sides now

We're always somewhere in between
We never taste the sweet extreme
And we're crystallized, we stand alone
Conviction holds us like a stone

I know it won't be long
I see both sides now

Well, we got to learn how to listen before we learn to talk
You got to learn to crawl before you learn to walk
If you want a little peace, well, sometimes you got to fight
Got to walk through the darkness, oh
Before you stand in the light, oh yeah

And I know it won't be long
I see both sides now
Come on

Well, we got to learn how to listen before we learn to talk
You got to learn to crawl before you learn to walk
If you want a little peace, well, sometimes you got to fight
Got to walk through the darkness, oh
Before you stand in the light, oh yeah

I know it won't be long
I see both sides now

Both sides now
Both sides now
Come on, both sides now
Oh baby come on, both sides now
Oh yeah, both sides now
I see both sides now
I see both sides now

. . .


I felt the earth move, saw the sun rise
Knew who the stars shine for
Understood Ouspenski, witnessed Velokowski's
Sunset rising at my door

Tracing my footsteps right down that slow drain
I felt so relaxed, so cool
What killed another fool
Just kept me sustained

So I'll just watch the mountains grow
Listen to the wind lie to me
Diggin' them changes on the radio
I'm cravin' some cool, cool water
I'm dying of thirst
Like some fool salted my circumcision

And the yogi's so high
But the difference is little differences
I've never been so high
Only difference is little differences

I'm stoned, stone cold
Stoned, I'm stoned
I swear, I'm there
I'm stoned, uh

First the silence, then the heat
Then fear sets in
Afraid you're gonna get an answer you don't want to hear
The truth puts blisters on my skin

Now, I got a problem with this whole concept, you see
Ain't no beginning, no end
It seems like every time I think I've arrived
A whole new trip begins

And the difference is
Should I say, the problem is, oh

I've never been so high
Only difference is little differences
And the yogi's so high
But the difference is little differences

I'm stoned, stone cold
Stoned, I'm stoned
Stone cold, I swear
I'm stoned, cold
Stoned

I'm there
I swear, I'm there
I'm stoned, cold
Stoned, so stoned
I know, I swear

. . .


Love's an hourglass
Goes out wide and comes in closer
Time ticks away, it drips away
Leaving empty, sanded shoulders

Now who said that love would last forever?
I'm growing tired of feeling like I do

All those simple little secrets
Have come between us
They're pushing me away
And I feel comfort in the distance, yeah

And you said that love would last forever
I'm growing tired of feeling like I do

Oh yeah
And there's a time, there's a place
A change of heart, about face
It's about love, it's about forgiveness
It's about our destiny, oh

Tell me now, tell me like it is
No one has to give
Amnesty is granted

And what's done is done for everyone
Come on baby, I want to start again right now
Amnesty is granted

And I think a lot
Yeah, I've been thinking a lot
I've been thinking about you baby
Lord knows I've been thinking a lot, uh

I've been thinking love should last forever
But I'm growing tired of feeling like I do

Oh yeah
There's a time, there's a place
A change of heart, about face
It's about love, it's about forgiveness
It's about our destiny, oh

Tell me now, tell me like it is
'Cause no one has to give
Amnesty is granted

And what's done is done for everyone
Now come on baby, I want to start again right now
Amnesty is granted

Now come on
Amnesty is granted
Oh baby, come on
Amnesty is granted

. . .



Here we go marching to Mars
On a rainbow bridge
It doesn't seem so far
Steppin' into our universe
Moving towards life
To solve the problems on Earth
Everybody's marching to Mars
Gonna settle down there
Get me a house and a car
Save each other from ourselves
Poke our heads out of the sand
Sayin' Here I am
Marchin' to Mars
We're marchin' to Mars
Hollywood's marching to Mars
For a grand new movie
With some brand new stars
Plastered on the silver scren
Gonna bring it on home
So you won't have to leave
Is there life in the universe
Yeah, there's life in the universe
We'll find God in the universe
We'll find God but we'll find life first
Marchin' to Mars
Marchin' to Mars
We're marchin' to Mars
Marchin' to Mars

I'm feelin' 40 days, 40 nights ain't enough
Come on wash me down 'cause I ain't giving up
Hey

I don't want to leave but how can I stay
I feel those magical things slipping away
A full circle's come around to the beginning of the end
Wash me down again

I'm stripped to the bone with nothing to fear
Four walls came tumbling down, now everything is clear
Full circle's come around to the beginning of the end
So wash me down again

There's a point of loss, a point of no return
Where nothing left wll burn

So wash me down again
Wash me down again
Take me to the water
Wash me down again, wash me down

Hey

Yeah, wash me down again
Wash me down again
Take me to the water, oh yeah
Wash me down again, wash me down

I'm feelin' 40 days, 40 nights ain't enough
