• Be Like A Cloud (live 11/05/2003, Brooklyn, NY)

Who said I was original?
Who said I was allowed
To sing as if I really sing
To write as if I really write?
Who said that I could suddenly
Get up from underneath
and walk away completely stumbling
Between each breath I breathe
and walk away sublimely stumbling
Between each breath I breathe?

Who said I was allowed?

I once flew by a real tall wall
With ivy all around
And saw two eyes I really liked
And saw two ears I really liked
And saw two lips I liked as well
And saw a face that I could love
But it was far, so far and cold above
Inside the big above
But it was light and dark and cold
Inside that big above

Don't ask for their permission
They'll never say that you're allowed
Be like a cloud
Cause you're no worse than a cloud...

Don't ask for their permission
They'll never say that you're allowed
Be like a cloud
Cause you're no worse than a cloud...

And so I walked to everywhere
And stopped in every town
The big ones with a little pond
The small ones with no pond at all
and though I've eaten dirt before
I've never grown to like the taste
and I prefer on any day
A big green apple in its place...

And I prefer on any day
A big green apple in its place...

Don't ask for their permission
They'll never say that you're allowed
Be like a cloud
Cause you're no worse than a cloud...

Don't ask for their permission
They'll never say that you're allowed
Be like a cloud
Cause you're no worse than a cloud...

And so I closed my eyes and watched
And when I opened them again
I knew the clouds had snowed on me
And then they poured on me some rain
And there stood this cold icicle
The very shape and form of me
I tried to cry but couldn't, so instead
I made myself a cup of tea...
I tried to cry but couldn't, so instead
I made myself a cup of tea...

Don't ask for their permission
They'll never say that you're allowed
Be like a cloud
Cause you're no worse than a cloud...
Don't ask for their permission
They'll never say that you're allowed
Be like a cloud
Cause you're no worse than a cloud...

So who said I was original?
Who said I was a cloud
To rain as if I really rained
To snow as if I really snowed?
You know the fastest thing in this world is
The speed of snow into your eyes
As you walk off sublimely stumbling
Sublimely slipping on the ice...
As you walk off sublimely stumbling
Sublimely slipping on the ice...

Don't ask for their permission
They'll never say that you're allowed
Be like a cloud
Cause you're no worse than a cloud...

Don't ask for their permission
They'll never say that you're allowed
Be like a cloud...
Be like a cloud...
