Verse 1
Let the lion, and the ram, and the fish fight it out
Oh lord let me be a peaceful man
Because I dont understand the minds of violent men
Sometimes nature can be such a bitch
But you carry no sword when they nailed you to the board
Your beautiful and loving sacrifice
Let the lion, and the ram, and the fish fight it out
Oh lord let me be a peaceful man
Verse 2
I aint trying to be perfect, Ill be perfect when Im dead
All the mistakes have made me who I am.
And the serpent may be shrewd, and got a bad attitude
But hows that different from the rest of us
So birds have their nests and the foxes their dens
but the Son of man has no place for his head
I aint trying to be perfect Ill be perfect when Im dead
Lord have mercy Im a selfish man
Verse 3
And if we go up to the mountain
Theres only one word for a cloud
How do you explain whatâs unexplainable?
And when he asks for his name he said, its always been the same. I am, that I am Ive always been
Its neither here nor there Its not seen its everywhere
it still resides within the heart of man
So love your god with your heart love your neighbor as your own
and the rest is just a guess as good mine.
Instrumental (Same as verse)
Verse 4
Let the lion and the ram and the fish fight it out
Let them go like the dinosaurs
The greatest sin in this world is rejection of your reason fear a man who pulls from one book
Still the heavens declare and the skies proclaim day after day hear them singing
Love your god with your heart love your neighbor as your own and the rest is just
a guess as good as mine
Love your god with your heart love your neighbor as your own and the rest is just
a guess as good as mine.
