All That Zen

(album: ¡Chutzpah! Jnr. - 2009)

Something here sounds like something I heard
A trip to the Hollies via Westerberg
Singing 'bout the times and occasions when
The boomerang seems too far for returning back home again, yeah

When they cut you up
When the anger flares up
When it gets so hard to obey your heart
'Cause your fists are clenched up

How you feeling now?
You're not gonna live this moment again
This is not a test
You're not gonna get this moment again

"That's right, it ain't coming back, it's gone"
"Nope, it's coming back, hup!"

I never thought I'd hear me singing like this
I'm feeling so damn good I wanna give me a kiss
It's clicking like Tetris eventually
I feel so connected I can't see a gap between you and me

You can feel like a brick in the wall
Or you can feel like a part of it all
Well buddy, that's the size of it all
That's Zen

When the things they say
Seem to wind you the wrong way
Then you realise that perception's 9/10ths
Common sense anyway

How you feeling now?
You're not gonna live this moment again
This is not a test
You're not gonna get this moment again

You're surrounded with
People being so negative
Why don't you leave them behind?
You can go and design that life that you wanna live

How you feeling now?
You're not gonna live this moment again
This is not a test
You're not gonna get this moment again
