You've got eyes like Jesus
But you s peak with a viper's tongue
W e were just sitting around on earth
Where the h ell did you come from?
With yo ur lady dressed in deerskin
And an a mazing way about her
W hen are you going to realize
That y ou just can't live without her?
Take it e asy
Take it l ight
But ta ke it....
Your l ady gets her powers
From the g oddess and the stars
Y ou get yours from the trees and the brooks
And a l ittle from life on Mars
And I 've known you for a good long while
And would you k indly tell me mister
H ow in the name of the Father and the Son
Did I c ome to be your sister?
Take it e asy
Take it l ight
But t ake it
Y ou've done dirt to lifelong friends
With l ittle or no excuses
W ho endowed you with the crown
To h and out these abuses?
Y our lady knows about these things
But t hey don't put her under
M e I know about them too
And I r eact like thunder
Take it e asy
Take it l ight
But t ake it
I know you are surrounded
By p arasites and sycophants
W hen I come to see you
I dose up on coagulants
Because w hen you hurl that bowie knife
It's going to b e when my back is turned
D oing some little deed for you
And b aby will I get burned
Take it ea sy
Take it l ight
But take i t
S o little brother when you come
/f#
To knock on my door
I don't want to bring you down
But I j ust went through the floor
My l ove for you extends through life
And I don't want to waste it
But h oney what you've been dishing out
You'd n ever want to taste it
A nd if I had the nerve
To either r isk it or to break it
I'd p ut our friendship on the line
And s how you how to take it
...E asy
...L ight
But to t ake it
