The Imaginary Hat - Bokonon Lyrics

Deep in the jungle beneath the setting sun
Lies the temple of Bokonon
He surely is a holy one
We all live for Bokonon

Well 'live' is a misleading word
We're in the bough of an unsteerable world
The stems of feathers of a caged up bird
Speak the truth for Bokonon

Tickling my spine
Everything is fine
I am in control
Everything is fine
Live by those lovely little lies
Always had a choice
Always had a voice
Rolling of the dice
Always had a choice
Live by those lovely little lies

Fate is bleeding an eternal hum
I'm going deaf from these internal drums
Faith may be blind but life's far more dumb
It's more fun with Bokonon

Good golly God gave us such nice toys
Lovely toys for lovely girls and boys
These atom bombs make a funny noise
An observation for Bokonon

Tickling my spine
Everything is fine
I am in control
Everything is fine
Live by those lovely little lies
Always had a choice
Always had a voice
Rolling of the dice
Always had a choice
Live by those lovely little lies

See like last night
I saw a man die
On the floor
Of Guildford Spoons
He convulsed and he lurched
As paramedics tried to restart his heart
And when we saw his soul depart
We finished up our beers and went home

Because this evil Earth comes with no guide
The meaninglessness presides
The only comfort it provides
Is Bokonon

And every human breath I take
And every human soul I break
And every bit of love I make
And it's Bokonon

And every Karass that I find
And every religion I blind
And every coffee bean I grind
Bokonon

Tickling my spine
Everything is fine
I am in control
Everything is fine
Live by those lovely little lies
Always had a choice
Always had a voice
Rolling of the dice
Always had a choice
Live by those lovely little lies

I'm in here
I'm waking up
I'm breaking down
I'm in love lately
