Orcanus I took a walk on the beach I saw a little old man He said sit down son And put your feet in the sand He said you're walking around With your head up your ass I said I didn't know that No, I didn't know that before I said profound advice But I don't know what you mean He said close your eyes And listen to the sea As the waves hit the shore I heard the ocean sing It made a wonderful sound Just like a symphony I said I didn't hear that No, I didn't hear that before Whoa - talk to the animals Whoa - talk to the animals He said don't open your eyes But turn your face to the wind Taste the salt in the air Feel the spray on your skin Hear the cry of a gull As he soars through the breeze That blows through your hair Are you following me I said I didn't feel that No, I didn't feel that before *Seems like we have to close our eyes Just to see where we're going There's beauty all around But we don't even know it Take a walk along that river Just to see where it's flowin' Or talk to the animals They'll be glad to show ya Take it easy, groove along Take it easy, groove along *edited out of album version © 1990 John Mendenhall
