Does Jerry really sound good
or is he just supposed to?
or is he just supposed to?
Are breaking down the doors of life
or doing it all like we're supposed to do?
It's destined. It's chosen.
Well up is down and left is right,
there's peace from war
but peace is worth a fight.
It's backwards. It's forwards.
Tis better to have loved and lost
than never to have loved at all.
But loving love will break ya down -
10 feet high to 1 foot tall.
It's lovely. It's lonely.
I don't know what you're doing.
I don't know what I'm doing.
I don't know what we're doing
but we're doing it anyway.
I don't know where you're going.
I don't know where I'm going.
I don't know where we're going
but we'll go there anyway.
Does education educate
or is it really just the time?
Does poetry still captivate
if blunted with the silly rhymes?
It's learning. It's living.
Silken suited toupee'd men
will wow you with their wild wit.
But the callused hands-ed philosophers
need no silver shovel to dig it.
It's thinking. It's building.
Passion, passion,
levels it all the same.
It's that red hot fire that heats the brand
that singes on the name.
It's heating. It's beating.
I won't know what you're doing.
I won't know what I'm doing.
I won't know what we're doing
but we'll do it anyway.
I won't know where you're going.
I won't know where I'm going.
I won't know where we're going
but we'll go there anyway.

Passion's a commodity,
bought and sold like jewelry.
Advertised and supervised,
scored and measured, criticized.
Passion is a luxury,
hoarded by the well-to-be.
Boarded, gated, manipulated,
monopolized, and well inflated.
It's passion. Just passion.
Passion's a commodity,
treasured loves and certainty.
Final stands, gestures grand,
rivers crossed, and bridges spanned.
Passion is a luxury,
priceless value, somehow free.
Investigated, innovated,
grown and gathered, instigated.
It's passion. Just passion.
Couldn't tell you what we did.
Couldn't tell you where we went.
Couldn't tell you many things
about the time that we spent.
Couldn't tell you what we did.
Couldn't tell you where we went.
Couldn't tell you many things
but I'd do it all again.
