R.E.M.



Life's Rich Pageant



Begin The Begin





Birdie in the hand for life's rich demand



The insurgency began and you missed it



I looked for it and I found it



Miles Standish proud, congratulate me







A philanderer's tie, a murderer's shoe







Life's rich demand creates supply in the hand



Of the powers, the only vote that matters



Silence means security silence means approval



On Zenith, on the TV, tiger run around the tree



Follow the leader, run and turn into butter







Let's begin again, begin the begin



Let's begin again like Martin Luther Zen



The mythology begins the begin



Answer me a question I can't itemize



I can't think clear, you look to me for reason



It's not there, I can't even rhyme here in the begin







A philanderer's tie, a murderer's shoe



Example: the finest example is you







Birdie in the hand for life's rich demand



The insurgency began and you missed it



I looked for it and I found it



Miles Standish proud, congratulate me







A philanderer's tie, a murderer's shoe



Let's begin again begin the begin



Let's begin again
