LYRICS
The way things are going
We all should be rowing
But the problem with our riddle…
We haven’t got a paddle
Seen in a scene
Life is but a dream?
I saw all these people
In shades of purple
And, you were there… and, you were there
People in purple praying for resurrection
And, you were there… and, you were there
People in purple and upon reflection
Are you aware… you were there?
Purple people eaters… beaters of perfection
I swear
I wish I wasn’t there
Seen in a scene
Life is but a dream?
[row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is but a dream]

ABOUT THE SONG
Mark 15: The Soldiers Mock Jesus
(16) The soldiers led Jesus away into the palace (that is, the Praetorium) and called together the whole company of soldiers. (17) They put a purple robe on him, then twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on him. (18) And they began to call out to him, “Hail, king of the Jews!” (19) Again and again they struck him on the head with a staff and spit on him. Falling on their knees, they paid homage to him. (20) And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple robe and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him out to crucify him.
