GreenChoby: Listen/Lyrics

• MP3 short clip, hi-fi play (broadband)

Another dawn disturbs the dreaming.  We rub the slumber from our eyes.  Hit the buzzer, pull our head under the covers, and await our own demise.  How often do we marvel in the morning light when we're squinting in our beds, that the glare from which we shield our eyes, is way over our heads

Chorus: 'Cause up in the big sky, beyond the far reaches, stars swim in endless night, and who can measure this?  No lab coat scientist (certainly).  I might as well relax, 'cause it's beyond me.

So we walk out of our doors, carry bundles in our arms.  Funny how we're not thinking about our flesh and bones, how capillaries and blood and veins all belong.  And they do just what they're told, by our unthinking minds, while our thinking minds are worrying about junk all the time.

Chorus

And who am I to think that it all rests in my hands, with my wonderin' and worryin', it's a slow way to bury me in my grave.  And who are we to counsel deity with lectures?  We were made from dust.

Chorus

So I look up at the sky, and I think about the sun.  And I snuggle in myself and whisper my contentment, that I'm not the only one.  And maybe just for today, I'll be a happy little child
and let the king of constellations keep his job a little while.
Chorus

It's beyond me, thank God it's beyond me.
