Philosopher Green Lyrics by The Moon Illusion

2021

[Verse 1]
Philosopher Green
Sits at the cafe
Watching people walking
This fine Sunday
To the steeple
Centered at the city's core
His life's been going down hill
Doesn't know what to think anymore
He weighs his options
Thinking why not
Never tried it before
Might give it a shot
He gets up from the table
And walks in the light
And he thinks to himself
"Am I walking free or is it design?"
[Chorus 1]
When they preach the word the people go
Even though they have no proof to show
Anothеr Sunday comes and Sundays go
But they don't know
They don't know
[Verse 2]
Hе sits in the back
Near a kid who's all bones
He goes and asks him
Why he's there all alone
He says he hates it
But loves to hear his mommy sing
(Hallelujah)
Green thinks to himself
"What an oddly strange thing"
(Hallelujah)
Green asks the young kid
Why he's so sad
When the only thing keeping him
Is the wife to his dad
He said he don't got one
And she's all he has
(Hallelujah)
Though she might hate him
He keeps coming though he's sad
[Chorus 2]
When they preach the word some people go
(Hallelujah)
Not because they have no proof to show
(Hallelujah)
Another Sunday comes and Sundays go
(Hallelujah)
But they don't know
(Hallelujah)
Can they know
(Hallelujah, Amen)
[Verse 3]
He finds the Reverend
After the service
Green said him he did right good
But the Reverend says this
"I could've done better
That's what ma will say in the end"
Green smiles and says
"I think we're gonna be great friends"
[Chorus 3]
When they preach the word the people go
Regardless of the proof they cannot show
Another Sunday comes and Sundays go
And they know
Yeah they know
They know
[Outro]
(Woo!)
