I know a carpenter, I know a laborer He is my teacher, he is my brother I have a neighbor, he is my savior He doesn't waver, he's a strong believer I know a business man, he scrapped his business plan While screaming fuck the man, he gave into the land.
They are all archetypes, people that I might like to be Just like in a completely different way and we all...all
We're coming out of our caves, Coming out of our cave and we all... We're coming out of our caves, Coming out of our caves
I know a farmer, I know his vision I know his struggle, I know his hope know a futurist, he is an optimist and he knows a young waitress and he's trying to coax her out of her cave by smiling, by winking by saying you know it's good for us to talk, yeah it's good to talk.
I know a father, I loved his daughter I told him never would I forsake her But I got home too late, from one of my escapades No woman to face, just a note that said baby I've sailed away right out of my cave Caught a swell, caught a wave To another inspiring place my friend the bureaucrat, he just accepts all that Which I cannot except, such frustration that I wept For my friend the taxman, he is my father and he tallies numbers all day, yes he knows his numbers you could say! He taxes income! I asked him how come? "You know I work hard for every penny don't you think I deserve it all?" "Oh the law, the law, the law son there are flaws in the law but, in the end I just answer to God boy I'm just doing my job!"
My friend the astronomer she is a stargazer I swear they talk to her, boy I wish I knew what they were saying while I was laying in her bed with her chest to my head..were our intentions misread? So I just said it, I said, "baby I'm a nobody I aint got no money! Just this ambition to tell the people we are equal so c'mon baby come out of your cave" Ahhh ahhh ahhh Catch a swell catch a wave to another inspiring place Were all, all all coming out of our caves.
