When at the table my mother she swore
Eat just a little then leave more
Quit while the hunger throbs in your breast
You must remember you're here as a guest

Went with my father to the food store
We bought just a little we needed more
He tried to hit the lotto number I lied 'bout my math test
Son I trust you to remember we're here as a guest

Oh hard hard to be on this earth
Dark dark for me was my birth
And the light it shone from the east and set in the west
Oh star star of my birth
Hard hard is the earth
And the light at least and best is only a guest

Fought with my brother I don't know what for
We fought just a little then we fought no more
The time tore us asunder the lie of a bad jest
But I no longer wonder why I'm here as a guest

So now that I'm grown I'm still not impressed
I'm a fool to own only a fool would invest
At my death still unknown where I'll lay in unrest
My last breath it will groan I was here as a guest

Oh hard hard to be on the earth
Dark dark for me was my birth
And the light it shone from the east and set in the west
Oh star star of our birth
Hard hard is the earth
And the light at least and best is only a guest

When at the table my son at me swore
Hell pops eat all you want then here have some more
But I quit while the hunger still throbs in my breast
For I always remember I'm here as a guest
Anyway I quit feeling hunger in my life's little breast
And I always remember I'm here as a guest
