Lyrics

Dropping Keys :
CHORUS:
I am one of many, I’m not one alone.
When I sing from the center of my soul
I shine like a diamond in the old king’s throne. Ah –ha! Hey, hey! I shine like a diamond in the old king’s throne.
The small minded man locks up everyone he knows But the sage ducks his head when the moon is low. And all night long he’s dropping keys,
To the beautiful prisoners at his knees.
All those beautiful rowdy prisoners must be freed! Doubt came along and captured me
he stuck me in a trunk at the bottom of the sea. The wise old sage had mercy on me
and his words of wisdom set me free.
All those beautiful words of wisdom set me free. Chorus
The king takes a diamond off his throne
and he sticks it in the ground where the seeds are sown
and up from the ground comes a groove of trees
sprouting words to the wise in the shape of keys.
The poet and the wise man climbing trees
so they can sing us songs like these. Chorus
END: Ah-ha, hey, hey- Shine like a diamond in the old king’s throne!
