Where Do I Go
now here's a riddle
through the ages
- when I close my eyes
where do I go
say, i step into some deep, dark waters
and while a marching band's givin' me the honors
say, i just lay there silently
and let the river take me
where, oh, where
where do i go
my only friend's a man
name-a francis jones
scuffs like a cat and looks like a crow
he's a good man but don't I know
you need time for something to grow
and to be frank about frank - he's kinda slow
see, every time we play Texas hold-em
that sumbitch just keeps folding
say, my friends, if I close my eyes
where do i go, oh, where do i go
one time I saw a sign
bout' four miles outta town
said: 'work needed at the docks'
when i got there, there were
people everywhere, coming
from all corners of the world
one of them said, son, here's the thing
you can go anywhere, be anything
well, i looked to the east
and i looked to the west
and i thought to myself - where do I go?
i figured i'd see the doctor
ask him a thing or two
i said: 'doc, I have some troubles and some questions too,
i been feeling kinda worried
and i been feeling kinda sad'
he said: 'describe your mind
and i'll tell you', so
i said it's like a subconscious hound
just a-chewing on my bones
well, he cleaned his shades
and he said - my friend
if you mean it like that

i just do not know
It was then i met a preacher
said, man, i'm sure glad to meet ya
say, maybe you can tell me
where it is I go
the fella took one sip
and he took me on a trip
where I met these folks had some sorta clue
and while it did come with a certain ease
i just can't spend all day on my knees
so i walked outside
and i hitched a ride
somewhere i did not know
then I wandered in a brothel
lemme tell you, they didnt sing no gospel
but in a way I saw the lord
if you must know
I saw this lady standin' pretty
and there was something she said to me
that for a second i thought – now there was something i knew
I spent the night crawling through their beds
till i clawed my way to the light of day
and i had many revelations
about some folks and many nations
but in the long haul
I did not know
then I went back to my hometown
there were many people standing around
they said - how, oh, how
how did it go
I told them that truth is scattered
and how I mended the above
and i've nothing to say on the matter
but if push comes to shove -
the fear of death in which life throws us
does not mean that death presupposes
a clear idea of nothingness
we can understand
they said: come again?
I said - we all gonna die
