Call to all the women
Call to the men
What could be stranger than the times we're in?
Earthquake, flood, y'all better hurry, kin
Ask the Lone Ranger
Rin Tin Tin
Flowin' just like water
Through the sands of time
To the marrow of the bone
And the eye of the mind
Like drink if you're thirsty and sight if you're blind
We got to let the funk unwind
Oh
Sons of God
And the daughters of men
Enmity between us
Is the fall began (fall)
What about genetics do we not understand?
Maybe we should listen to the band
The band
Rin Tin Tin
Earthquake, flood
Y'all better hurry, kin
Ask the Lone Ranger
Rin Tin Tin
Analog people
In a digitial world
Too much information make your hair curl
Nothing left to value
If it's all the same kind
We got to let the funk unwind
Ooh
Ooh, Rin Tin Tin
Whether you're a boss or a sucker
(Best to be like water)
Just lookin' for stock
(Water)
You're still a second hand
(Best to be like water)
On your master's clock
(Water)
Oh, it's best to be like water
There's no vibration in rock
Meet me in between the atoms
Beethoven and Bach
Faith and the nobleman to lead you
Through the wilderness of life
That he taught you
Now has brought you
To the truth about time
There's no such thing
What could be stranger?
(Rin Tin Tin)
Ask the Lone Ranger
(Rin Tin Tin)
Get' em, girl
Ah
Better, hurry, kin
(Rin Tin Tin)
Oh
We need to let the funk unwind
Here come the jury
Talkin' about good and bad
Laughter in their eyes
From the power they had
Check, check the watches
Can somebody please
Tell me the real time (man, what time is it?)
They got to let the funk unwind
Oh yeah (wind)
Rin Tin Tin
Rin Tin Tin
Rin Tin Tin
Rin Tin Tin
