too much joy - my past lives lyrics

Loading...

i was genghis kahn i was aristophenes
i was a guy named urgh in 50, 000 b.c.
i was rasputin and all the chicks he had
i was catherine the great i was my mom and dad
i’ve been a butcher i’ve been a baker i have been a bookmaker
i have skippered clipper ships and dug for undertakers
i’ve lived to be 98 and i have died when i was four
i’ve lived through war and peace and war and war and war and war

i could write a book about my past lives
i should write a book about my past lives
i died three times at waterloo
this life’s not the best but at least i’m not you

i was abe lincoln i was all the slaves he freed

this life’s not the best but at least you’re not me
i’ve been french n-blemen and i’ve been russian peasants
i’ve been somebodies, n-bodies, once i was a pheasant

iwas there when ceasar bled and i followed where moses led
i wrote the words mohammed said, i kissed the ground where st. paul tread
i was best man when henry wed, i put the crown on george’s head
i slept in washington’s bed, i shot john f. kennedy dead

i watched atlantis sink below, hung out with bowie at the aalamo
i didn’t like being edgar allen poe, i was sick a lot whe i was rimbaud
i helped the druids build stonehenge, me and buddha invented zen
once i borrowed shakespeare’s pen, joan of arc was my best friend

- too much joy
