Lyrics
Find another song@ @
When you're absolute beginners, it's a panoramic view
From her majesty Mount Zion, and the kingdom is for you
Uh huh
Uh huh
When you tumble upon that valley
Shark or sparrow line the stairs
When the arrows start descending, then they scatter everywhere
On a bookshelf in Caladonia sits a map of passageways
Best to stumble upon Mount Zion to behold the natural gates
Uh huh
Uh huh
They say the original sinners never felt a drop of pain
Until that second in the garden, then they felt it each and every day
So draw back your bows, you hunters who have never felt that plain
All the absolute beginners, they are safe in the shade for today
Uh huh
Uh huh
When you're absolute beginners, it's a panoramic view
From her majesty Mount Zion, and the kingdom is for you
Uh huh
Uh huh
Uh huh
Uh huh
Uh huh
