Incubus - Hilikus Lyrics

About a hundred years ago now thought I was left for dead
Soliloquy, she was my
A picture, a wake, my metaphoric friend
So then I fell in love with an irony named life
It taught me this from that and
A picture, a wake, you're gonna be hilikus

History has a tendency
To block out the popular beliefs
About the leaders of the time
So glisten with my syllables and
Ponder the thought
Maybe they should have
Had to dedicate more to it, go

You've got to be
So good to be
You've got to be hilikus

So I took a walk out side
With my new found friend and the knowledge imbibe
I figured I'd find another
With the same attitude
Yes, then maybe I could talk
To someone other than myself

The doors are swinging wide open
A positive attitude and the ilk in my pocket
Had a lot to do with my new found friend
The hilikus
Sha ba da da, da bum dee dee dow ba dow
Sha ba da la, da, dee dee dow dow!

History has a tendency
To block out the popular beliefs
About the leaders of the time
So glisten with my syllables and
Ponder the thought
Maybe they should have had to dedicate more to it, go

You've got to be
So good to be
You've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
So

History has a tendency
To block out the popular beliefs
About the leaders of the time
So glisten with my syllables and
Ponder the thought
Maybe they should have had to dedicate more to it, go

You've got to be
So good to be
You've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
So you've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
You've got to be hilikus
Yo
