Caravan

Moses went into the desert Moses came back with the law Jesus went into the desert God only knows what he saw Hitch up your ass and your camel Fill up your skin at the well Roll up your tent, whisper your prayers Are you ready to ride through hell Caravan moving through the night sleeping in the light of day Caravan spinning through the void on our way to anywhere Caravan time is just a joke change is all we understand Caravan life is a mirage, only a mirage dancing on the desert sand How I recall all the mountains How I remember the farm Oh how I miss the big city With a pretty girl on my arm Sell my best friend for some water Cut off my leg for some shade Sunburn these thoughts from my memory If I live I will be remade The sand is like a razor Slashing at my face Everyone's in panic but you can't see any place It's a sand storm, taken by surprise Hide beneath your wrappings and cover up your eyes Well I lost my kit and camel Maybe I will die Feel so lost and helpless and I think I'm gonna cry It's a sand storm, nothing you can do No one knows if it will last No one knows if you will make it through It's been so long without water Vultures are filling the air Where is that bloody oasis Must be around here somewhere Time for some strong meditation Time for the ultimate change Time to make peace with your maker Everything has been prearranged
