It's the same, it's the same for everyone,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone,
Mysterious jewel in a plastic box,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone,
A temporary housing for a fleeting soul,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone,
It's the same, it's the same for everyone,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone.
She said, "Don't you know that what you see is what you get?"
I stared there, I was a witness,
"It's not so much the getting, as in the seeing," that's what she said.
It's the same, it's the same for everyone,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone,
Mysterious jewel in a plastic box,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone,
A temporary housing for a fleeting soul,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone,
It's the same, it's the same for everyone,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone.
One candle may not last the night, but, oh, what a lovely light it gives, like fireflies in empty jars, or midnights' most delightful stars.
Love shines on all alike,
Love shines on all alike,
Love shines on all alike,
Love shines on all alike.
It's the same, it's the same for everyone,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone,
Mysterious jewel in a plastic box,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone,
A temporary housing for a fleeting soul,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone,
It's the same, it's the same for everyone,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone,
It's the same, it's the same for everyone,
It's the same, it's the same for everyone,
It's the same, it's the same for everyone,
It's the same, it's the same for everyone,
Water and blood, and flesh and bone.
