Even Missiles Are Empty

[Verse 1] A trillion-dollar missile flies across the sky Aimed at children of the same old grandfather With that money, how many could we feed and clothe All I can do is laugh, so that's how it was, haha [Chorus] Ha— I can't help but laugh, so that's how it was Clinging piled on clinging till it turned into a missile Let it go, it's a feather, let it go, it's empty Grandfather cries, then laughs, so that's how it was [Verse 2] My land, my god, my people, the clinging was the trouble An empty boat gives no one a reason to fire Zhuangzi knew it, Abraham knew it all along And we proved it with a trillion-dollar lump of steel, haha [Chorus] Ha— I can't help but laugh, so that's how it was Clinging piled on clinging till it turned into a missile Let it go, it's a feather, let it go, it's empty Grandfather cries, then laughs, so that's how it was [Bridge] The dawn when Abraham looked up at the stars We only need to go back to that beginning Even missiles are empty Just lay the clinging down, haha [Outro] Grandfather cries, then laughs Now at last the truth comes to light Even the missile was empty all along Ha— I can't help but laugh, so that's how it was
