As You Are Lyrics - Singles - The Bears

as you are i once was - as i am you will be 

all over the world are people like you and me 

a bunch of sour apples on the old family tree 

and billions of kids - i'm afraid they're all yours and mine 

but all we have in common is the way that we whine 

as you are i once was - as i am you will be 

they're mad at the world but the world doesn't care 

who swims in her water who breathes all her air 

mother earth didn't burn when the dinosaurs all left home 

but they left a little note written down with their bones 

as you are i once was - as i am you will be 

farewell to modern warfare - hello eternity 

i've got some good news bad news 

at the end i'm you and you are me 

don't be a sore loser - you're not even lost 

so crawl out of your bunker climb down from your cross 

'cause the answer is love to the question we're all too stupid to ask
