M mmm M mmm

It seemed the better w ay

When first I heard him s peak

But now it's much too l ate

To turn the other c heek

Sounded like the t ruth

Seemed the better w ay

Sounded like the t ruth

But it's not the truth tod ay

I wonder what it was

I wonder what it m eant

At first he touched o n love

But then he touched on d eath

Sounded like the t ruth

Seemed the better w ay

Sounded like the t ruth

But it's not the truth tod ay

I better hold my t ongue

I better take my p lace

Lift this glass of b lood

Try to say the g race

It seemed the better w ay

When first I heard him s peak

But now it's much too l ate

To turn the other c heek

Sounded like the t ruth

Seemed the better w ay

Sounded like the t ruth

But it's not the truth tod ay

I better hold my t ongue

I better take my p lace

Lift this glass of b lood

Try to say the g race

N.C.

Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm
