His cigarette is burning
But he never seems to ash

You can meet at his location
But you better come with cash

Now today is tomorrow

of the waining of the moon

Now do you believe
G#
In the one big sign

The doublewide shine
On the bootheels of your prime

Doesn't matter if you're skinny

You can dress up like a sultan
In your onion head hat

We're the only ones to turn to
When your castles turn to sand

Take a bite of this apple

Take a walk through the jungle
Of cardboard shanties and tents

Some people drink Pepsi

Some people drink Coke

He says now do you believe
G#
In the one big song

He's now accepting callers
Who would like to sing along

She says, do you believe
G#
In the one true edge
D#
By fastening your safety belts
And stepping towards the ledge

If you ever lose your way
