Meat Puppets – Unexplained Lyrics

Rock

They are not stars,
Burning in the sky at night.
No, no they're candles,
In astro-flight.

They are not men,
Walking on the streets below,
What are they really,
No body knows.

They are not stars,
We are not human.
I don't know
The reason why.

A firefly is not a candle,
Not a flower in my eye.
And so, a rose is not a rose,
By any, any other name.

Things remain...
Unexplained.

I am a tree,
Dancing on the ocean floor.
The air is water,
On desert shores.

There is a face,
Hanging on the salty moon.
Trees singing,
This silent tune.

They are not stars,
We are not human.
I don't know
The reason why.

A firefly is not a candle,
Not a flower in my eye.
And so, a rose is not a rose,
By any, any other name.

Things remain...
Unexplained.

They are not stars,
We are not human.
I don't know
The reason why.

A firefly is not a candle,
But a flower in my eye.
And so, a rose is not a rose,
By any, any other name.

Things remain. . .
Unexplained.

They are not stars,
We are not human.
I don't know
The reason why.

A firefly is not a candle,
Not a flower in my eye.
And so, a rose is not a rose,
By any, any other name.

Things remain...
Unexplained.
