Uncle Murgatroyd

In full view of what I’ve been
I’ve committed the cultural sin
Of seeking truth the only way that I know how
So a naughty boy I’ll be
But I know that I can see
That the only thing that’s real is the now
So you can’t undo what’s been done
Uncle Murgatroyd
You weren’t here when the yarn was spun
But you’ll know when you’re in the Void
I have found a better place
At a fast but happy pace
I’ll go down the road to be right where I’m me
Like a boat that will not sink
All you ever do is think
That you have the time to really feel free
No you can’t undo what’s been done
Uncle Murgatroyd
You weren’t here when the yarn was spun
But you’ll know when you’re in the Void
Can you look at me straight in the eye
And tell me you’re not scared to die
Just live
Don’t tell me ‘bout life’s to be lived
And the only advice I can give
Is to live, just live
I have often wondered how
You avoid the here and now
As though it’s something dirty from your past
It’s too bad that you were caught
Running ‘round the faceless clock
That’s ticking aimlessly and going nowhere fast
No you can’t undo what’s been done
Uncle Murgatroyd
You weren’t here when the yarn was spun
But you’ll know when you’re in the Void
Just live
