[Intro] Am Am Am Am [Verse] Am Am A monk with a hard-on, And a lavender robe Dm E That scratches his thighs, Through the hat that he strode Am Am As he follows a path, Filled with every desire Dm E Am And mimics his footsteps, And sets his prayers on fire. [Verse] Am Am Well I too have chosen, That which left no choice Dm E To sing without loving,A solitary voice, Am Am To observe with passion, Each careful denial Dm E Am The protrusions which give my life meaning for a while. [Chorus] A Dm Sometimes I see you in berries and weeds C F You're brushing your teeth with liquorice seeds F A# Standing too close, Pulling your clothes, E Smiling at God And the meaning of life grows. [Verse] Am Am No and I'll never tell, And I'll never know Dm E What candles you light, After the show Am Am And I'll never tell, And I'll never ask Dm E The meaning of life after mass.
