Jar Lyrics by East (Japan)

East

0

Once there was a man
'Bout to die in Egypt sand
Met a wise old man from India
The old man sailed the boat
With his white silk coat
Took him all the way to India
The old man took him down
To his own country town
And laid his body on his golden bed
Then the old man asked his man
To take his magic fan
And he took the bad stone seed out of his head
Well he thanked the old man
And he held the old man's hand
Wanted to be the old man's brother, so he asked
Then the old man took him down
Where nobody else was round
Gave him lessons to be a jar as his task
For more than thirty years
He lived with blood and tears
On how to be a jar, so he sat
And finally he put himself
As a jar on the shelf
The jar, full of love as he sat
The old man said to his brother
"Oh there is nothing more that I can show you"
So he rowed the boat back to Egypt
Full of love, with the jar, full of love
Once there was a man
'Bout to die in Egypt sand
Met a wise old man from India
