Lyrics

Tale of Two Worlds is a song inspired by following a horse and buggy carriage in Amish country.

"Tale of Two Worlds"
(Lyrics - M, Novak, C. Webster - Music: M. Novak)

He lives in a condo with all the buzzers and bells
She lives in commune carrying water from wells
His Tesla is charged to drive the streets of the town
A horse and buggy her only way of getting around

He’s got lots of degrees and a mountain of debt
She’s home schooled the eighth grade is all that she gets
He believes in nothin’ but money and fun
Her convictions run deep she believes in the One

CHORUS:
Tale of two worlds which one’s more content
You enter one world without your consent
Tale of two worlds in one our needs are never met
In the other world your needs are what you get

His thoughts are conflicted he can’t be convinced
She’s worldly illiterate but she still has her innocence
The power grid is his god he can’t live without it
It means nothing to her by candle light she will knit

His family life is chaos keeping up with the neighbors

Tale of Two Worlds

Her family’s bound together with the fruits of their labors

Two Different Worlds

His world is paralyzed by too many choices

Tale of Two Worlds

She is told what to choose by her family of voices


CHORUS:

Which one is better the modern world or the old

Tale of Two Worlds

How can you judge with the beliefs that you hold

Two Different Worlds

Each has its values and distorted perceptions

Tale of Two Worlds

This is their life with few exceptions.

CHORUS:

It's All About the Music!
