lyrics

DOIN' UP THE BEST THAT I CAN DO

I’m doin’ up the best that I can do
Considering not everyday is paradise
A race is on, sometimes I win or lose
Based on how I agitate and empathize
Sacred is the power of the word
It can leave a deep impression
That can change they way you think of life
A diamond ring or pterodactyl turd
How you wanna hear it all depends on your reality
What works for you, may not for me and so on

I’m doin’ up the best that I can do
Trying to function in harmony
It’s more or less a crap shoot I presume
Avoiding the face of adversity
It took me many years to understand
A world of many laws means corruption is the status quo

When things look like they’re getting out of hand
I pull myself together and retire to the ether world
Where big eyed beans from Venus are my friends

Yeah that’s right.
I said where Big Eyed Beans From Venus
Are My Friends.
Ya gotta problem with that?... I didn’t think so.

BIG EYE BEANS (Venus)
BIG EYE BEANS (Venus)
BIG EYE BEANS (Venus)
BIG EYE BEANS (Venus)
BIG EYE BEANS (Venus)

It doesn't take much brains to understand
Nothing is an absolute, so enjoy this roller-coaster ride
Beat that cosmic tom-tom if you can
Tapping out a rhythm they can groove to on the other side
Where everyone's a leader of a band

So I'm doin' up the best that I can do
Trying to live in a paradise
The Stars, the Moon, the Earth and me and you
Sharing a song we all harmonize

I'm doin' up the best that I can do
Trying to live in a paradise
The Stars, the Moon, the Earth and me and you
Sharing a song we all harmonize

I'm doin' up the best that I can do
Trying to live in a paradise
The Stars, the Moon, the Earth and me and you
Sharing a song we all harmonize

I'm doin' up the best that I can do
I'm doin' up the best aren't you?
All aboard - join in
Join the love train - love train...
