BOULDER STONES

you can change your style
change your taste
change your smile
change your face

pick your clothes
pick your friends
you can fix yourself
but you can't fix them

you can fix that drawl
fix that accent
hide your flaws
highlight your assets

hide your past
if you can't get past it
start from scratch
if you get too drastic

augment your breast size
augment your dress size
still not pleased?
there is always a next time

maybe the next time
you'll get the best advice
then you'll
get it done right

live your dreams
chase that star
even if the means
take it way too far

even if it seems
like it's way too hard
you must believe
in the way you are

I am a rock
I am a solid
beware the gasses
they passin' as knowledge

they got the polish
I got the shoes
they got the facts
but I got the truth

they got the seed
but I got the fruit
they got the greed
but I got the juice

they are the seas
and they will induce
me to erode
but I won't be moved

waste your years
waste your youth
waste your tears
waste your loot

waste your time
waste your chance
waste your mind
with a whole lotta can'ts

so face your fears
face your demons
chase them clear
with a little bit of reason

stay sincere
don't stop dreamin'
everybody needs a little
somethin' to believe in

it could be change
it could be progress
it could be sane
it could be nonsense

it could be concepts
it could be objects
it could be natural
or chemical or cosmic

it could be nothin'
to everybody else
it's just that somethin'
you keep for yourself

but if you feel
like this world just
ain't letting you be
remember you've always got me

I am a rock
I am a constant
remain the same
never changin' my content

we ain't to blame
we weren't there from the onset
we just became who we are
through the conflict

I am a rock
