Lyrics
The Good Book
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Poor little hairy kids out on their own
They run to the festival to show that they were one
They've fallen in love with all human kind
So tell them you love them so they don't change their mind
Write us a book of instructions or signs
And if it's been written then give us more time
Recite a poem or sing us a song
And tell us you love us so we don't feel alone
And it's sad that we weren't born like horses and sheep
To know where we're goin', to know what we need
But you've written the music so we'll sing along
But tell us you love us so we don't feel alone
Give the poet a poem and the singer a song
And they'll tell us you love us
So we don't feel alone
So we don't feel alone
So we don't feel alone
You gotta tell us you love us
So we don't feel all alone
