written by Wood and Mother Love Bone

i want to show you something, like joy inside my heart
seems I been living in the temple of the dog
where would i live if I were a man of golden words
or would I live at all
words and music - my only tools
communication
so on her arrival I will set free the birds
its a pretty time of year, the mountains sing aloud
tell me Mr golden words hows bout the world
tell me, can you tell me at all
words and music - my only tools
communication
lets fall in love with music
the driving force in our living
the only international language
divine glory, the expression
the knees bow the tongue
confesses
the lord of lords, the king of kings
words and music - my only tools
communication
etc
