Lyrics
What is the difference, between want and need
So says the owl, to the child of the trees
Food and shelter a given, but knowledge I lack
Much too soon, for perspectives looking back
Go ask the camel, has been around for awhile
Carrying so many loads, for untold miles
Holding more water, than any other in the sun
Surely can measure, when all said and done
This is a story, of an Owl with a question
Widest eyes around, best for speculation
Thinking to create, but lacking the need
Always an animal, always deceived
Hey Mr. Camel, so what do you think
Tell me the answer, and I’ll give you a better drink
Not sure, hard to say, don’t bother with such babble
It’s all the same, when lifting more than a shadow
Go ask the lion, seems to have it all figured out
The king of the jungle, judging others throughout
Our greatest fear, beyond the loads we bear
The end of known, should answer your despair
This is a story, of an Owl with a question
Widest eyes around, best for speculation
Thinking to create, but lacking the need
Always an animal, always deceived
Hey Mr. Lion, can you help my quest in seek
To find the difference, between want and need
What a silly thing to say, meaningless words
I only sort out, the weak from the herd
Right or wrong, no difference to me
Growing out my gold, kill when I feed
Good question I think, still just an animal
Ask the man with the cape, on top of the wall
This is a story, of an Owl with a question
Widest eyes around, best for speculation
Thinking to create, but lacking the need
Always an animal, always deceived
Hey there, wow, what a super place to be
Is my struggle almost over, for the question I need
Pushing so far, living on the bare essentials
Snacking sometimes, from the web of tarantulas
Not sure what to say, to something so simple
What you want are illusions, buying your cripple
What you need is truth, free to all who create
Never slowing down, never to replicate
This is a story, of an Owl with a question
Widest eyes around, best for speculation
Thinking to create, but lacking the need
Always an animal, always deceived
