Song Lyrics:
That Would Be Something (Song lyrics)
I.
If we could just travel and
party and play,
If age came upon us like a
pretty spring day,
If each man could have Venus
awake in his bed
And a penis that stood and
never dropped dead,
If out lust for adventure
could be satisfied,
If our thirst could be
quenched whenever we tried,
If Summer
were able to hang out all Winter,
If one man could die to save
all the sinners,
That would be something (3x)
I'd kill myself to see.
II.
If women were equal in size
and in weight,
If
If the men who make rules
throughout the world knew
The questions they answer
for me and for you,
If we could have Love and
Peace and Joy,
If Good were the way for
boys to be boys,
If we could be happy and
never be bored,
If we knew the answer the
day we were born,
That would be something (3x)
I'd kill myself to see.
III.
If there weren't stains on
our clothes and holes in our socks,
If we could know time
without building clocks,
If effect had a cause and we
were all free
To know what we want and to
do as we please,
If seers and poets did not
seem so mad,
If Beauty were sold in
sixteen-ounce cans,
If preachers were prophets and
businessmen able,
To balance the amount of
food on the tables,
That would be something (3x)
I'd kill myself to see.
IV.
If words could communicate
the things we want said,
If the living and dying
could speak with the dead,
If everyone had a good song
to sing
And the power to see what
the future will bring,
If we could have trees and
firewood, too,
If for every seed planted a
sweet blossom grew,
If I could put all that I
want in this song,
If all went as planned and
nothing went wrong,
That would be something (3x)
I'd kill myself to see.
Written May 1985.
