In lowliness He came on Earth, to rescue us from Satan's snares, o wondrous love that healed our wounds, by taking on our mortal cares. To God the Father and the Son, for ages of eternal day, together with the Spirit be, all glory, honor, might and praise. Till, oh, I have asked to be. I have desired to go, oh I have asked to go, where a few lilies bloom, to fields where flies no sharp and sided hail, and springs not fail, and springs not fail. And I have asked to be, oh I have asked to be, out of the swing of the sea, where the green swell is in the havens dumb, and no storms come, and no storm come

Beautiful dreamer, out on the sea, mermaids are chanting the wild Lorelei. Over the streamlet, vapors are born, waiting to fade at the bright coming morn.

Moon river, wider than a mile
I'll be crossing you in style
one day
you dream maker
you heartbreaker
wherever you're going, I'm going your way
two drifters, off to see the world
and there's such a lot of world
to see
we're after the same
rainbow's end
it's just around the bend
my Huckleberry friend
moon river
and me

What did you see, when
walking down bridges,
did you come into
cloudlight at sea,
green fields forever,
kindness of strangers,
tracing the old streets,
tracing the names?
If somebody calls to me,
I'm hoping to not fear,
not fear to answer.
How will it be?
How will it be?

Verse 1:
Reuben Walton: It's the remix, it's the remix/being recognized, or your race being jeopardized/but every time you get your paycheck you die a little bit inside/'cause you're sweaty swallowin' vomit when you think what the industry made you do/freaks dictatin' this s*** like it ain't taboo/so be it, go on and write an oratorio about how sinful you've been and the game is thru/no need for cash or credit, mane, 'cause the winner, mane, is you/you just don't get any too many more f****** speeding tickets for being insanely rude/and you can eat all these f****** beat-a** n***** that ain't too smooth/over the edge and out of control, but you still gonna reap these digits and make it rain 'till June/it happened to be your lucky day/so exit out another fuckin' way/like your name was Jim Taylor, and James Taylor, too/I ain't no sailor but I sure do curse like one, on some Kung Fao Kung Pao Moo
Chorus:
Tim Goulet: I don't like the birds and bees, they just sit there and pee, I don't (4x)
Verse 2:
RW: Mary Moo Cow shit/steady flashin' diamonds like "Who's that rich?"/man, I knew that bitch, way back in high school/skinny dippin' in my pool/eatin' Monterrey cheddar jack cheese by the pound/from inside the womb, you can't see through the mound/'cause you can't leave when you're bound/lookin' all Japanese 'cause I'm a free freak for it now/I freak 'em down, then leave 'em out in the rain with a weaker b****/I freak 'em down then set 'em free/I freak 'em down then let 'em be/free freaks can't get to me, I'm a classy b****, I keep my weapons weaved/free freaks from France wanna prance for free/freak 'em down, they can't get the best of me/free freaks at the leather party wanna take a chance with me/I'll break 'em off between the thighs, like my Dr. Dré advised against to me

Nathan Caradimos: I have a question for you, and I need an honest answer.
Reuben Walton: What did you ask me?
NC: Keep reading.
RW: Oh my god.
NC: What--I know, it's a stupid question, but it could happen.
RW: No, I mean, it's just--I said "Oh my god" because it just would...make me feel so sad.
NC: Oh.
RW: And I'm kind of emotionally fragile right now for no reason.
NC: Airing born, everyone goes through changing?
RW: I guess you could call it that, but I don't know.
NC: Babe, are you okay?
RW: Yeah. (coughs) Do...
NC: But babe, what would you do, though?
RW: I would be devastated. I would be absolutely devastated. I would probably at first feel really numb and first, and then...reality would probably set in. And--
NC: Yeah.
RW: I don't know, I've never really had anyone close to me die yet in my life. I've never had someone, like, who's really close to me.
NC: Right.
RW: So I don't know what I would do. I imagine that it would probably just be such a shock I would not know how to deal with it, and how to really f--wouldn't know how to react.
NC: Oh yeah.
RW: Fa Sol...But, I mean, if it was you I would be devastated.
NC: You're the sweetest thing, and the best thing that has ever happened to me.
RW: I hope so, and I hope that you're speaking the truth.
NC: (tone slightly changes to one of attitude) Uh, babe. You think I would lie about something like this?
RW: No.
NC: And umm, I am sweet like I do, you don't know I love you.
RW: Okay.
NC: Are you okay?
RW: Yeah.
NC: Are you sure? You s--You seem kind of sad.
RW: I don't know. I am kind of sad, but I don't really know, uh, any other--
