A5
let us die, let us die! 
in dying we reply

E5
and lower our baskets down into the open bed
of the fruit truck passing by

A5
and we can smile at each other again
me and my cantelope friend

E5
cast our cares at the couple of pears
put a blueberry garland on an apple bed

A5
the apple threw our half baked fears
like a wooden shoe in the windmill gear

E5
the turning stopped and we clearly saw
the flaws in that which finds the flaw

A5
the strawberry said to the tangerine
"my face is red but our hats are green"

E5
be it orchard or a curling vine
the son of yours is the Son that's my
God...

Ya subhannallah

Subhannallahi Amma Yassifun

Sallalah wallah Muhammad (Sal.)

Ya Rabbi sali alaihi wa salim

lettuce grows, lettuce grows
in neatly sectioned beds and rows

E5
but one day asked the gardener
to be moved to where the eggplant goes

A5
"reason being, i must confess
i adore her shining purple dress"

E5
as the eggplant listened in
she wasn't offended but she wasn't impressed

A5
the potato called from underground
"you've got it all turned upside down!

E5
does the rain that sent each spring anew
to fall on her not fall on you?

A5
you project on her your inward scene
she's a blank external movie screen

E5
but the One who looks out from your eyes
                                                   A5
looks through hers and looks through mine

we all well know
            E5          A5
we're gonna reap what we sow
            E5
we all well know
            E5             A5
we're all gonna reap what we sow
               E5               
so may we old fashionably suggest
       A5
the unmarried not undress
        E5
we well know
            E5         A5
we're gonna reap what we sow
         E5
we well know
            E5         A5
we're gonna reap what we sow
             E5
we all well know
              E5            A5
what kind of crops are gonna grow
                     E5              E5
from each time you disrespect your parents
            A5
you better hope we don't hear it
        E5
we who know
             E5           A5
you're gonna reap what you sow
              E5
we all well know
            E5          A5
we're gonna reap what we sow
                    E5
but grace, we all know
              E5           A5
can take the place of all we owe
            E5              E5    A5
so why not, let's forgive everyone everywhere everything
E5            E5      E5         E5                    
all the time everyone everywhere everything
E5            E5      E5         E5
all the time everyone everywhere everything

(when everything get real big it changes to...)
