R.E.M.

This is not a parable
This is a terrible
This is a terrible thing
Yes I will rhyme that after.. after all I’ve done today
I have earned my wings
It happened today… Hooray! Hooray!
It happened. Hip, hip, hooray!
We’ll leave the allegory to a different Bible story
Out of deference.. defiance.. the choice
Closing on a promise after.. after all I’ve done today
I have earned my voice…
It happened today… Hooray! Hooray!
It happened.. Hip, hip, hooray!
Aaaahhhh….
