Now everybody tells me youre the dogs best friend Im the cats meow since I dont know when Im an instigator from a dead mans town So when did the whole world turn upside down When did you change your mind, when did you lose the juice Now where did you get your attitude When did you give it away, what did the old man say And how many babies did you kick today Now how many nights can the full moon shine How many bottles of water can you turn to wine When the blood has flowed against the tides of time And the water flows forever Hey hey hey! Now Im gonna build a boat, Im gonna make it float cause Im getting the chase for a faraway place Gonna set the sail, gonna catch some wind And the big red skys gonna be my only friend With a boat for two, just me and you You can be my teacher, I can teach you too Gonna try a few things that Ive never done Maybe talk to the fishies, maybe have some fun Maybe shake my pale fist at the angry stars While I dance a jig under the eyes of mars When we get to an island where no ones ever been We can get down and dirty in our animal skins And I stand with my thing hanging out in the wind Where the waters sweet like honey Hey hey yeah hey hey yeah! Ive been feeling a chill, from the east wind blue Its been creeping up slow, have you felt it too? Have you noticed the look? have you felt the feel? Did it make you blush when the piggy squealed Have you heard what they say, did you read the news Said the old mans coming home a-singing the blues Gonna whack your fanny, gonna tan your hide Make your ears turn red, make you gonna cry Now how many children gonna lose their minds How many crying girls will be left behind When the dead start walking and the full moon shines When the dead start walking and the full moon shines When the dead start walking and the full moon shines When the dead start walking and the full moon shines When the dead start walking... yeah Now everybody sing to the heavens above And everybody dance to the sounds of love Wont you clack your teeth, wont you smack your hands Wont you dig your little heads right out of the sand Wont you jiggle your butt, wont you wave your arms Wont you look like you just came off of the farm Wont you stop your fighting for a second or two Wont you help your neighbors, wont you do the do Wont you taste the sugar, wont you eat the cake Wont you get your ugly mug right out of my face Wont you tell your brothers and your sisters tonight, That you tasted the water and the water was right Wont you taste the sugar, wont you dance the dance Wont you wake up please, come on out of your trance Everybody make believe that you disappear For a second or two, gonna feel so queer And you left behind all your rage and fear And it made you feel like water
