Lyrics

Grandfather of the Buffalo: Where Were You in the Wild ('09)

We complain all of the time
For example I'll quote an anon. sheet
"I cried because I had no shoes
Until I saw a man who had no feet"

It's about time we leave our problems at the door
Or swept under the rug
Or prepare to stare them in the eye
Wide open, not all buggy bugged

I try to find these principles

Pretty standard to follow

Keep my mind airing out

Make it solid not hollow

Don't find yourself drooling over someone elses dinner
Remember that everyone you meet is holding an invisable mirror

I always visualize 'there' is a better place
I should be living here enjoying present pace

I've got to take time to stop and pat the neighbors cat
And lap up any opportunity that I might get

It's about time for a change to start a revolution
It's medicine time without the billings and perscriptions

I'll do what I can even if I hit the finish line
With an asthma attack under the sun
As long as I feel it is
wind-blowing-through-your-hair type of fun

Doing this double Dutch thing
Jugling all of my time all the same
I have come to fill this bucket to a
Bucket full of change

It may all seem picture perfect
But I have been caught hanging from the ceiling
But after I'll get through all of it, I'll go back to
Talking about life as if it isn't happening

Happening

I stub my toe, stumble and splint
In realization, I found a rock with a dinosaur footprint
In the middle of my badlands
I felt like the Grandfather of the buffalo
