lyrics

I Had 1680 Wives
I.
I had 1680 wives
In my past 2000 lives
I am a city in time
And love is my dollar and dime
I had 107 million dreams
Every one came true it seems
The eesert turned green in my eyes
But along with the cattle came flies
I have been father, son, and brother
The one always the death of the other
Ages and eras I’ve seen
Ask the wives for the in-between
Ref.
He seemed so handsome, young, and clever
We didn’t know he’d last forever
He seemed so handsome, young, and clever
And now we’re all in this together
II.
I had 1680 wives
And several financial dives
Millions of skins I have shed
Enough to lay the planet to bed
Sugar and spice I did mix
Created the world just for kicks
All my desires shall ever be soothed
And if I’m well the world’s approved
I’ve been the mountain, the valley, the sea
For the ant, the spider, and the bee
Time is my light, space is my screen
Ask the wives for the between
