So Beautiful Or So What Lyrics

I'm gonna make a chicken gumbo Toss some sausage in the pot I'm gonna flavor it with okra Cheyenne pepper to make it hot
You know life is what we make of it So beautiful or so what I'm gonna tell my kids a bedtime story A play without a plot
Will it have a happy ending? Maybe yeah, maybe not I tell them life is what you make of it So beautiful or so what So beautiful, so beautiful, so what
I'm just a raindrop in a bucket, a coin in a slot I am an empty house on Weed Street Across the road from a vacant lot You know life is what you make of it So beautiful or so what
Ain't it strange the way we're ignorant How we seek out bad advice
How we jigger it and figure it Mistaking value for the price And play a game with time and Love Like a pair of rolling dice So beautiful, so beautiful, so what
Four men on the balcony Overlooking the parking lot Pointing at a figure in the distance Dr. King has just been shot
And the sirens long melody Singing savior pass me not Ain't it strange the way we're ignorant How we seek out bad advice How we jigger it and figure it
Mistaking value for the price And play a game with time and love Like a pair of rolling dice So beautiful, so beautiful, so what
