Joy Surrender

The Ark · Arkeology [2011]

I was born to start a revolution

It would be my contribution

To a worldwide resurrection



I was born to start a million fires

The joy of man's desires

Was laid in my hand



But I was born a weak and worried thinker

With an eagerness to know myself

That throws it all away

'Cause all I can think of is:



Love

And Saturday

And how the golden road can seize to glare

Oh, man! What if I just don't gave a damn?

-How wonderful!

But after all the worst can't be that bad

Oh, man...What if I knew how to say:

- Stop

- No

- Let go?



- Oh, the angelheaded demons-tongue

Who thought he knew

Why some mirrors crack so easily

- Oh now, he ain't got a clue



And every now and then

It seems to me it's come to this

- That promises and prophecies

Was all I had to give

'Cause all I can think of is:



Love

And Saturday

And how the golden road can seize to glare

Oh, man! What if I just don't gave a damn?

-How wonderful!

But after all the worst can't be that bad

Oh, man...What if I knew how to say:

- Stop

- No

- Let go?



Oh, Love...

The worst can't be that bad



Ooooh

Love

And saturday

And how the golden road can seize to glare

Oh, man... What if I just don't gave a damn?

-How wonderful!

But after all the worst can't be that bad

Oh, man



Seems like a joy surrender

Love...
