E                        D  A
I'm not feeding off you, I will
 E
rearrange your scales
      G
If I can, and I can
 E                    D  A     E
March into the ocean, march into the sea
         G
I had a hat, and it sunk,
reached down, and slapped it on my head
B
All the people gather

Chorus:
       Em     Em        Em 
Fly to carry each his burden
         A                 C             Em
We are young despite the years we are concern
 Em     Em               A
We are hope despite the times
Em G             A
Settle on these days
         C              Em      G
Happy throngs take this joy wherever, wherever

I wish to eat each one of you, and you, me, you
If I can, and I can
We have many things in common, name three
I had a hat and it sunk, reached down
Yanked it up, slapped it on my head

Chorus

And I'm not feeding off you,
I will rearrange your scales
If I can, and I can
I wish to eat each one of you, and you, me, you
I had a hat and it sunk, reached down
Yanked it up, slapped it on my head
