TALES OF HIGHER LEARNING

Living by the hour in the mindless hazy way
Marching to the sounds of the lazy day parade
The freedom of a prince without the pressures of a throne
A fairy tale lifestyle as real as your own

So come on down
Where everyone is king
Feeding their minds and chasing all their dreams
All the while wondering how it can be
That everybody everywhere is so carelessly, carelessly free

Walking through the door as the sun begins to rise
Everyone is welcoming the day by getting high
Talking all around, asking is it real
Starting to believe this is really how I feel

So come on down
Where everyone is king
Feeding their minds and chasing all their dreams
All the while wondering how it can be
That everybody everywhere is so carelessly, carelessly free

The notion of time is lost on all
No one seems to care about the clock on the wall
When the moment arrives, the gathering starHappiness is poured as the rules come apart

Moving in the night, the people start to sing
To their own delight, they’ll sing anything
Throwing out the worries and the problems of today
They sing “tomorrow is a lifetime away”

So come on down
Where everyone is king
Feeding their minds and chasing all their dreams
All the while wondering how it can be
That everybody everywhere is so carelessly, carelessly free
