Greasy Dashiki

Lyrics

Does not a rose
By any other name
Still smell as sweet
Is not a life
Without a little love
Still incomplete
Be it Jah Rastafari or
Christ on the cross
Mohammed or Moses
The Love is not lost in a name

Now the Pharisees
Discussed the points of law
While Jesus bled
And I won’t
Mistake the messenger
For what he said
If it’s a message of peace or
A message of love
If Jah lives in I or
In Heaven above it’s the same

What is the name of god
Vishnu or is it Bob
Lion or lamb or dove
What is the name of god
And if I’m right are others wrong
Can’t we all just sing songs of love,
of love, of love

Now's the time
I know the judgement day
Is drawing near
And I know, I know
That I n I have nothing to fear
I don’t know where you stand
And I don’t really care
Just take hold of my hand
And we’ll sing grateful prayers
Without shame

Does not a rose
By any other name
Still smell as sweet
Is not a life
Without a little love
Still incomplete
Be it Jah Rastafari or
Christ on the cross
Mohammed or Moses
The Love is not lost in a name
Lost in a name
The Love is not lost in a name
Lost in a name
The Love is not lost
