Born Naked

about

song I wrote for my daughter when she was born in 2007

lyrics

I don’t know much but I do know one thing my child
every civilised man is born naked, terrified and wild
what don’t lift you up will only bring you down
they may take your cup
but don’t ever let ‘em steal your crown

I don’t know much but I lived my life a free man
follow every road but you won’t find a better plan
don’t be imprisoned by the voices in your head
you’re better off to listen to your heart and soul instead


So why can’t we just love one another
why we got to bring each other down
every man is your brother from another mother
everybody born butt naked we’re all buried fully clothed


I don’t know much but I love your Momma,
you know she was never afraid to fly too close to the sun
Don’t look for heroes in a world of fleeting fame
your Momma gave you breath so you could speak your own name
