lyrics

Toss your javelin ‘cross the chasm
Of space and time and generation
A running start, the finest art
Of casting shadows long and lean

The Genius in your own backyard
Don’t need no helpin’ hand
Don’t need no praise nor accolade
To cultivate the land
Fortunately Behemoth’s still around

His father pulled, with hands that hold the child
The sapling from the earth with all its roots
According to John, who was there too
Though the telling sucked, the bones of it were true

The Hero stands astride the ridge
Surveys the valley green
His vision never blurs at all
He sees what must be seen
Fortunately Goliath’s still around

Sorrows for a day
Here and gone away
I’ll tell you what I’ll do
Considering it’s you
I will help you pull

Toss your javelin
See what happens
Go cast your shadow long and lean
