Empty Bowl Traditions
And he rode an old plan that day
(Yes he did, yes he did)
To escape what he had made
(What he did, what he did)
Was to follow that sound till it made him insane
Floating up to new heights, but he's still afraid of planes
And the old man yelled a curse
(What he said, what he said)
Was about was old men did first
(It was said, it was said)
That the sea would swallow up and want to anchor to themselves
And then the hermit drowned in heaven down to hell
Here's a secret that nobody wants to admit
Everybody wants attention just a little bit
And everybody thinks their stories just a little better than yours
But if you're not parading, escalating
Then what're you doing it for
Bathed my daughter in the moonlight
Just to hide her from the sun
The pigeons battle on my front lawn
But the war was never won
Do they want your bad thoughts to rise or go away
The kappa never looked to friendly anyway
Bathed my daughter in the moonlight
(Bathed my daughter in the moonlight)
Just to hide her from the sun
(Just to hide her from the sun)
The pigeons battle on my front lawn
(The pigeons battle on my front lawn)
But the war was never won
(But the war was never won)
Do they want your bad thoughts to rise or go away
(Do they want your bad thoughts to rise or go away)
The kappa never looked to friendly anyway
(The kappa never looked to friendly anyway)
(Yes he did, yes he did)
To escape what he had made
(What he did, what he did)
Was to follow that sound till it made him insane
Floating up to new heights, but he's still afraid of planes
And the old man yelled a curse
(What he said, what he said)
Was about was old men did first
(It was said, it was said)
That the sea would swallow up and want to anchor to themselves
And then the hermit drowned in heaven down to hell
Here's a secret that nobody wants to admit
Everybody wants attention just a little bit
And everybody thinks their stories just a little better than yours
But if you're not parading, escalating
Then what're you doing it for
Bathed my daughter in the moonlight
Just to hide her from the sun
The pigeons battle on my front lawn
But the war was never won
Do they want your bad thoughts to rise or go away
The kappa never looked to friendly anyway
Bathed my daughter in the moonlight
(Bathed my daughter in the moonlight)
Just to hide her from the sun
(Just to hide her from the sun)
The pigeons battle on my front lawn
(The pigeons battle on my front lawn)
But the war was never won
(But the war was never won)
Do they want your bad thoughts to rise or go away
(Do they want your bad thoughts to rise or go away)
The kappa never looked to friendly anyway
(The kappa never looked to friendly anyway)
