Sayer of the Law - ORBS

Keep your tongue in your mouth

Though I know you’ve things to say, but if your words get out they will surely

destroy

Miss are you spoken for?

because I’d like to speak at you…

Hold on to your seats while I try to transcend (using only my stories) the lies

of men

Keep your tongue in your mouth

Though I know you’ve things to say, but if your words get out they will surely

destroy

Mr. dress suit hold your tongue, I have the speaking stick now!

I wandered off the path one day.

Great watcher turned, and I ran away

I lost myself amongst some trees

Birds and lizards paid no mind to me

Sat atop the mushroom growths and drank the tea of forest folk

I did not mind, I sat alone until a hopping toad approached

He spoke of things you’d not believe

He whispered truths that tickled me

I lost myself in fairy tales though truth be told, these tales were real

The toad and I we shared a smoke and I lent my ears as for hours he spoke

He bestowed his knowledge upon me, the women he’d known, the places he’d seen…

(In the forest where I found god

I licked it’s back and finally saw

The place where all the good ones go

Who births the rain, what births the snow?)

Everyone was tripping, the whole world was dancing and I thought, I thought

Maybe I was tripping for the animals were singing and I thought, I thought

«I know this song!

I know this song!»

And it’s finally making sense now…

I’ve found a way to transcend the lies of men

And man found a way to destroy everything worth loving

Keep your tongue in your mouth!

Is that too much to ask of you?

I sat for hours while he spoke and asked him why he 'came a toad

Said he’d always been this way, was not disguised just for today…

In the forest where I found god

I licked it’s back and finally saw

So many colors I’d never seen

The here and now, the in between

He’s not who I thought he was

But I like her much better as

It’s not like I thought it was

But I feel that I fit these paws…

It’s not like I thought it was

But I like it much better as

It’s not like I thought it was

But I feel that I fit these paws
