when the light
turning world comes
the silver tower
foggy electric battery
we travelers on the working road
have to pause inside our shoes
we role over
we roll over
Like John Lennon you know who you are now
Aware of every deed

He roled over
He rolled over

Its the king of knowledge
the sage of old
offered to those lucky few
not needing faith
you have it
eternally
see through desire
became the yogi
like your brother George

We need you to show the others
When everyonce can read
Not just another story
But the peace
And the cold hard glory

So asking who me? who me?
If no one there to save you
At the minute when you fall
recall this very second
when you knew it all

We role over
We roll over

Rollng on down the road
