Ströer Bros. & Fine - I Was Down On The Earth lyrics

What sort of shrine did you have in mind? I can guess the thoughts you're thinking! Wouldn't you rather drive a Lincoln? The chasm between us is the dream we share. Crawl to the edge, take a peek, if pilgrimage is what you seek. You and your money already are parted. Will you end up whole or brokenhearted? If life's too fast reset the pace: another rat, another race. Sagebrush around us, mesas on our minds, tuned to cosmic channels, we're all feeling fine. "Quiet out here, ain't it?" Sure was, till you broke it. Now I'm here, to come along, Show me the face before I was born. Walking out, in the sun, today. Now I'm here, I've been around, Coming from the underground. Straight I'm walking here this way. Have you seen my time machine? Flying me right in the scene. Soon I'll be going back down and away. In the time when the nights were dark. I was down on the Earth. When the bite came before the bark. I was down on the Earth. In the days before Noah's ark. I was down on the Earth. Sing in praise of the cartilage shark. I was down on the Earth. Now I'm here to come along, Show me the place where I was born. Walking out in the sun, today. Now I'm here, I've been around, Coming from the underground. Straight I'm walking here this way. Have you seen my time machine? Flying me right in the scene. Soon I'll be going back down and away. The earth that trickles through these hands ain't worth a nickel, understand? And yet, though fickle, life is grand. So when it tickles, join the band. We're all just pilgrims on this big ball. I've said my piece, now heed the call! Asleep awake, it seems so deep. Is it real or is it fake? Stay attuned and learn to feel. Kiss the wound so it can heal. In the time when the nights were dark. I was down on the Earth. When the bite came before the bark. I was down on the Earth. In the days before Noah's ark. I was down on the Earth. Sing in praise of the cartilage shark. I was down on the Earth.
