She was Born on a Sunday
back in the 1970's
they said it was cloudy
maybe just 32 degrees
but when you came out they said the sun shined
when you came out they said you cried
Your mama held you and your daddy sang this song to you
You mama kissed you while your daddy sang
"Shanti Om Shanti Om, don't you cry little girl" he sang
"Shanit Om Shanti Om Shanit Om"
I was born on a Friday
back in 1980
a springtime baby, with the head of an aries
thinking that I'm always right
til my Daddy he took me aside
He says "Boy you don't know what I know, and what I know is what I know so,
before you go, let me tell you what I know......."
He says
"The stars that you think about every night, won't get you to the places that you like
You mind and your body and your soul divide, but one feeds the other so you can survive"
He says "The stars that you think about every night, won't get you to the places that you like
You mind and your body and your soul divide, but one feeds the other so you can survive
Its time for you dreamer's to beware
Its time for you dreamer's to beware
Its time for you dreamer's to beware its not the same the world that you think out there."
well I don't care
She was Born on a Sunday
back in the 1970's
they said it was cloudy
maybe just 32 degrees
but when you came out they said the sun shined
when you came out they said you cried
Your mama held you and your daddy sang this song to you
You mama kissed you while your daddy sang
"Shanti Om Shanti Om, don't you cry little girl" he sang
"Shanit Om Shanti Om Shanit Om"
