Abraham

Cambridge Cornell, wide ruled
I like a sail boat beside the shore
Educate myself become an educated fool
Ain't no smarter than before
Than before
Birdwatching in the Park
Some say bird brains, well they ain't that smart
But look how they get so high
Because Lord knows the smarter I get I still can't fly
I can't fly
And I said Abraham
I was one of them and if I gave a damn
I would be a better man
And if I raise my hands and started asking questions
Maybe I, maybe I will be
An Abraham, an Abraham indeed
Oh yeah
Big beard and all, you know
And maybe I'd get a top hat too and stuff like that
You know what I'm saying
Mycelium tripping in Toronto music gardens
This bird flew up to me and said it was heading to the south
I said oh hey birdie birdie
You know that's where I was given my heart
That bird said he got it straight from its mothers goddamn mouth
And I said well I didn't say nothing, damn
It fluttered away and I relished in it's sound
It shook the skyscrapers and blew the grass upon the ground
And all my people, I tell them it's never too late to decide
To change your point of view and get fucking high
Get high
And I said Abraham
I was one of them and if I gave a damn
I would be a better man
And if I raise my hands and started asking questions
Maybe I, maybe I will be
An Abraham, an Abraham indeed
Oh yeah
Oh an Abraham, yeah
And I said Abraham
I was one of them and if I gave a damn
I would be a better man
And if I raise my hands and started asking questions
Maybe I, maybe I will be
An Abraham indeed
Oh yeah, all right
An Abraham indeed
O-o-o-h
Palms are sweating clenching his American gun
Listening to Clearwater's "Fortunate Son"
Watching the world through the peep hole of his door
Wondering if Fox and CNN are gonna start a Civil War
Oh yeah
Abraham, I was one of them and if I gave a damn
I would be a better man
And if I raise my hands and started asking questions
Maybe I, maybe I will be
An Abraham, indeed
