I said "Please Mr. Bankman"
I need 10 grand to buy me back my car.
I can't give you no cookie
But if you give me the cash I'll buy you the whole jar
He scratched his head
Clicked his pen and looked me up and down
As he called for Security
He leaned towards me slowly with a frown
You gotta know to understand
Baby take me by my hand
I'll lead you to the Promised Land
You gotta know to understand
I was driving late at night
With my best girlfriend, her name was Tracy Trump
We took a left up at Norfolk
And stopped the car after I hit a bump
I said "Don't cry baby, we were going so fast it probably didn't feel one thing."
Yeah
As we were laying it to rest
The dog jumped up and started to sing
You gotta know to understand,
Baby take me by my hand
I'll lead you to the Promised Land,
You gotta know
I went out for a walk
I was wondering why my life was standing still
I went up to see the wise man
His cave was on the top of wise man hill
When finally I got there
I saw the old man, he was standing on his head
I said "tell me bout the birds and the bees and the flowers
And the trees and The moon up above and the thing called love"
...he said
You gotta know to understand
Baby take me by my hand
I'll lead you to the Promised Land
You gotta know to understand
You gotta know to understand
Baby take me by my hand
I'll lead you to the Promised Land
You gotta know to understand
End
