As You Are - The Bears

As you are i once was — as i am you will be

All over the world are people like you and me

A bunch of sour apples on the old family tree

And billions of kids — i’m afraid they’re all yours and mine

But all we have in common is the way that we whine

As you are i once was — as i am you will be

They’re mad at the world but the world doesn’t care

Who swims in her water who breathes all her air

Mother earth didn’t burn when the dinosaurs all left home

But they left a little note written down with their bones

As you are i once was — as i am you will be

Farewell to modern warfare — hello eternity

I’ve got some good news bad news

At the end i’m you and you are me

Don’t be a sore loser — you’re not even lost

So crawl out of your bunker climb down from your cross

‘cause the answer is love to the question we’re all too stupid to ask
