Ronnie wrote a song about the beginning of the world, the ongoing nature of the world, about creation, which we recorded in my house before he did it later, and it was about the evolution of consciousness. And this is it. Well, once I was a stone, many years ago, and two poles were thrown, many years ago. Time passed by, the pool rimmed dry, excavated was I, tempered in me in a fiery heat. I am a man, whose name was Dan, Dan the Blacksmith. Once I was a sword, many years ago, and my blade was broad, many years ago. Worn with pride, his battle-hardened mind, his warrior side, cut my heel, wasped in a field, soon did rust, corrode to dust, oh my. We're still very early in creation. Once I was a daisy, many years ago, in pastures green and lazy, many years ago. I was Ed the Fire Goat, who fell in a boat, forgetting to float, who sucked like a lad, who stayed until dead, I was relieved to find, just how kind it all was. Once I was a grub, many years ago, I lived in muck and mud, many years ago. The very first food, I became a cuckoo, set foot afloat, the good love was done, in the warmth of the sun, I shed my skins, I dried my wings, and I flew away. Well, once I was a bullfrog, had to struggle for survival, once I was a carp, I lived in waters ornamental, once I was a minor bird, I quoted verses from the Bible, I said pretty boy, pretty boy, St. Luke. It's a long life. Once I was a mule, many years ago, but my master treated me cruel, many years ago. I was sick, couldn't move to his kick, so he took out a stick, hit it right across my back, to an almighty crack, and to his dismay, I passed away into the blue. I was born a human baby, many years ago, I was born unto a lady, many years ago. All her hopes were upheld, on the back of a child, that turned out to be wild, soon the devil of prayer, caused the foster to swear. So I took my leave, to Lianthi, my way to jail. I've been a drinker, tailor, soldier, sailor, I've known good times and disaster, but now I found a teacher, and the teacher has a master, the master is perfection, so he'll help us get there faster. I don't need no proof, cause that's the truth, and I'll drink to that. I'll drink to that. I'll drink to that.
