lyrics

Your eyes and your smile penetrate through
visitors, adventurers and general inquisitors.
You see the beauty in the world around you
connecting, analyzing, and dissecting everything you do.

Because you are lady of the Earth
and you care for its mother for all she's worth
The geological and philosophical and diabolical
are all direct concerns of yours.

You sing at the top of your lungs
You stay in on Friday where you have the most fun.
Talking to rocks, what do they say?
"I'm a rock. I can't talk." is probably what I'd come to expect.

Because you are a lady of the Earth
and you care for its mother for all she's worth.
The geological and philosophical and diabolical
are all direct concerns.
The astrological and philosophical and metaphysical
are all indirect concerns.
The mathematical and sabbaticals and political radicals
are not concerns of yours.
The pharmaceuticals and office cubicles and movie musicals
are not your biggest concerns.
