Why’d they refuse you entry?
Cat, they just don’t understand
you’re my brother, but hell they let me in
Salaam, my brother Yusef
I have always loved you
even when you went away
but Shine, Shine, Shine…
we just don’t respect your pilgrimage
your holy trip
it’s always set you apart
you’ve always had second sight
and I’ve loved you for it
been in love with you
since forever
before you went to
before you had tea with your tillerman
before you teased the firecat
before you offered Buddha his chocolate
and now especially since
I’ve drunk your wine, my brother
I love you so much
you bring me to God, to your Allah
Shine, Shine, Shine
