Godhead Lyrics by John Waite

Figure in a Landscape

0

[Verse 1]
No Krishna, Buddha, Jesus in my soul
'Til the sun breaks through again
Down into nothing as I lose myself
In the perfectness of Zen
She said: I got an answer
I said: I'm curious
Write that down, my friend
It said there's nothing in the real world
So why should we pretend
Zero

[Chorus]
Godhead
We got nothing
Yeah, baby
We got everything

[Verse 2]
Took a page out of Upanishad
And I flew a paper plane
But there's nothing in the real world
But the cool, cool, cool of soul
And I've got nothing in my pockets
But loose change and gold
Zero

And I'm trying to get somewhere
In a room with glow
The church mice are singing now
What John Lee Hooker knows

[Chorus]
Godhead
We got nothing (zero)
We got everything (nothing)
We got nothing (Godhead)
We got nothing left, baby

[Verse 3]
I'm falling backwards in her mirrored room
In her mirrored room tonight
She's looking good
And I feel fine
And she says we might make it

[Chorus]
It's Godhead
We got nothing (yeah)
We got everything
Godhead
We got nothing (zero)
We got everything
Godhead

[Outro]
Well, I wish I was a catfish
Swimming in the deep blue sea (yeah)
