ZEBRA

Lyrics © John Butler 2004

I can be loud man, I can be silent

I could be young man or I could be old.

I can be a gentleman, I can be violent.

I could turn hot man or I can be cold.

I could be just like the calm before the storm both,

waiting for all hell yeah to break loose.

I could be innocent or I could be guilty

doesn't mean that I don't believe in the news

So I'm singin'……

I could be rich like a wandering Gypsy

I could be poor like a fat wallet lost.

I could be first or I could come last

its not who breaks the ribbon boy

it's how you get across.

I could be red blue black and white sunset

Darkest at day boy brightest at night

I could be the sun man I could be the moon

I'm made up from the stars boy

I shining so bright.

So I'm singin'……

I could be asleep boy, I could be awake

I can be alive or be the walking dead

I can be ignorant,or I could be informed

I could lead my life man or I could be led

I can be anything i put my mind to boy

all I gotta do is give myself half a chance

I can bring love back into my life

and share it with the world if I got some balance

So I'm singin'……
