In the mission I met a man
Stared me down
With a clean shaven head and a goatee
And some cognac to pass around
He said that his name was Oleg
From the planet of Tralfamadore
And it seemed like he was Russian
But not in a hurry at all
Oh
He was goin' from bar to bar
Lookin' for the answer
He learned that his dad had Alzheimer's
And his brother had cancer
I tried to explain the mystery
Of why we got here and how
He said "So this is God,
A bald little man I could kill right now."
Whoa
He's running through the spinklers screaming
I'm bending my mind to find the meaning
Drinkin' Speakin' seekin' feelin'
I'm bending my mind to find the meaning of
Goin' away now
I can play now
When the spaces change
Won't loose my head over nothin'
But a muffin and some coffee and shnae
But I gotta eat lunch now
Gotta go out
And face the day
I know what I gotta do now
No matter how much I'd like to stay
