12. Dumb Piece of Rock (4:13)
(Oooo-oooo-oo-oo-oooo-oooo)
- The storyteller: Tom Baker -
I was not expecting this
(Oooo-oooo-oo-oo-oooo-oooo)
I really wasn't
But I'll be damned
If that old stone statue didn't come alive
(Oooo-oooo-oo-oo-oooo-oooo)
(Oooo-oooo-oo-oo-oooo-oooo)
- Statue: Micheal Mills -
You were always my favorite
I've known you so long
Never seen you so happy
And I'm never wrong
Yes, I know why you're here
‘See what's at hand
They will never accept her
And won't understand
(Oo-oo-oo-oo)
(Dum-dum-dum-dum)
That you belong together
(Oo-oo-oo-oo)
(Dum-dum-dum-dum)
(Oo-oo-oo-oo)
(Dum-dum-dum-dum)
Regardless of status or race
(Oo-oo-oo-oo)
(Dum-dum-dum-dum)
But what do I know
(Oooo)
(Dum-dum-dum-dum)
(Dum-dum-dum)
I'm just some dumb piece of rock!
(Ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ah)
(Uu-uo-uu-uu-uo-uu)
You will last
(Uu-uo-uu-uu-uo-uu)
Forever (Forever)
I see how she lights up your face (Oh)
(But what do)
I
(Aaaa)
I'm just some dumb piece of rock!
Yes I'm only a vision
A light in your dark
A mere decoration
Not even
Art! (Ah!)
But none of that matters
I'm what you need
I'm the fury inside
Demanding you see!
That you belong together
Regardless of color or class
But what do I know
(I know no no no)
I'm just some dumb piece of rock!
You will last forever
Latch on to this one golden chance
But what do I know
I'm just some dumb piece of rock!
