The Garden of Earthly Delights

PROLOGUE

Ipse dixit, et facta sunt Ipse mandavit, et creata sunt

Take my hand and there's no telling
All the wonders we will see
In this Paradise our dwelling
Where we eat of every tree

Harmony between all things
In the Garden
All around creation sings
In the Garden

Each of us made for each other
I am yours and you are mine
Made one flesh to praise the Father
All according to design

My soul's love is for you
In the Garden
My mind says it's good and true
In the Garden

I'll go where my feelings lead me Don't care if it's right or wrong My desires exist to feed me And my mind just plays along

Gotta find some other place now Where I can quell my appetites Heaven's joys won't satisfy me I need a Garden of Earthly Delights

Here for me are all my wishes Giant fruits and naked friends Bubble boats and flying fishes Carnal chaos never ends

I don't need the trees of Eden Or the ever-shining light Just the fruit that tastes so luscious In the Garden of Earthly Delights
