lyrics

1st Verse
God gave me a brain, I’m supposed to use it
He gave me his grace, don't want to lose it
everything that I've heard about
I got questions but I got no doubts

2nd Verse
I got these lyrics running round in my head,
got to write it all down before I am dead
what's coming next ain't no mystery
He said he's gonna prepare a place for me
Chorus:
I’m so tired of this planet that I'm on
what people think of me after I'm gone
Learning how to bow, and to be polite
Just let me walk on, into the Light

3rd verse:
Watching the circus, As it rolls into town
Each generation has its leaders and clowns
But nothing’s left when the tents get pulled down,
they took the money and they ain't around

4th verse:
pieces of this and pieces of that
put them all together in an old man's hat
how can you stand so near the light
and still you can't tell wrong from right?

2nd Chorus:
It doesn’t work anyway,
if you worry bought what they willl say
trying to please the strangers in your life
you wanna live? leave your corn, cut by the knife

God gave you a brain, you're supposed to use it
He gave you his grace, I hope you choose it
everything that you've heard about
I know you've got questions
but there ain't no time for doubts-No
