lyrics

FIRST NIGHT"S DREAM

in the midst of my struggle and strife
I lost my job and I lost my wife
I lost the way - I even lost my life
and I'm unexpectedly happy
now that my life is through
I see it all from a different point of view
I know what I gotta do
and I'm unexpectedly happy

I'm not part of the children's crusade
my gratification has been delayed
I could be happier if I got paid
but I'm unexpectedly happy
don't take commands from the telephone
I'm much happier on my own
than running along the edge of a cone
and I'm unexpectedly happy

Satan:
"Hello, Mr. Kennedy
I see you're back for your latest adventure
you can say 'Hello' to all your friends
I knew you would make it back
so I have another mission for you
this time you must bring back the rock
Mr Kennedy Bring Back The Rock"

(body - get back)
(suffering is the hardest thing to give up)
