Translation
Bilingual
Sun in my face, breeze in my back
It's easy to see where heaven's at
To think some think it's a pile of bones
Or something else material like a load of gold
Sure that's fine but in my mind
ย
Note for note each thought's a boat
Pluck strings singing how much don't know
Stating thus with this little bass
Then evaporating in the air with hardly a trace
Permanently or temporarily
ย
Tangents I imagine kept me confused
But being a hare I'd hostage gave me a clue
Complicated thinking sure can wear you out
Out at sea paddling, peddling my route
Spinning, simply spin my wheels around
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking (peddling) and paddling
Well there before the mirror cross-examining
What use is blaming others and situations
Thinking and linking responsibilities
Has helped me open possibilities
Still I find myself hollering for help
ย
Manifesting what I learn from others
What a mechanism I discovered
Philosophical a la carte
Works works, parts is parts
Humbler bumbler slow learner
But no one's in the doing if your sights are such
The hamster wheel turning though drives some folks nuts
Wherever I put myself there I am
What can you do with a ridiculous man
Put foot to peddle and hand to paddle
ย
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking (peddling) and paddling
ย
Man it's funny how things get organized
To make them comprehendible and systematized
Stalag, gulag or Berlin Wall
Stuck in the head to strain it all
The strangle tight out all the life
ย
Structure punctured, hey what gives
Here in the sphere of contemplatives
Jacob's ladder flaming sparks
Dancing glancing lighting up the dark
Tops have spun climbing up each rung
ย
Form always expressed stuff profound
Hurt near the only thing out my mouth
If I had to relate this experience
Wordless breath would be my closest guess
I think that'd sum it up the best
ย
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking (peddling) and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
Plucking, peddling and paddling
