What If the Hokey Pokey is All it Really is About?

Jimmy Buffett, Mac MacAnally, C. Macak, T. Baker, L. Laprise
 The universe is runnin' away
 I heard it on the news just the other day
 There's this new stuff called dark energy
 We can't measure and we can't see
 It's some elemental mystery
 Train that we can't catch
 But our heads are in the oven
 And somebody's 'bout to strike a match
 Meanwhile back on our big round ball
 Things are getting serious as cholesterol
 Permutations, calculations,
 Greedy piggies at the trough
 Arrogance and ignorance
 Just to top it off
 I just can't keep up with the Nasdaq
 Who got sold and bought
 I've got to take my lunch break
 But I'll leave you with a little for thought
 Maybe it's all too simple
 For our brains to figure it out
 What if the hokey pokey
 Is all it really is about
 What if life is just a cosmic joke
 Like spiders in your underwear or olives in
 your coke
 My life can get as messy as a day old sticky bun
 So I arm myself with punch lines and a big ol'
 water gun
 They say it's not that simple but just maybe it
 should be
 It's time to change the subject, would you join me
 in a cup of herbal tea?
 Maybe it's all too simple
 For our brains to figure it out
 What if the hokey pokey
 Is all it really is about
 I still believe in rock 'n' roll
 It pays my bills and soothes my soul
 There really really isn't
 A whole lot more around
 Except for Frank Sinatra and the Big
 band sound
 I want music in the music
 I want chicken in the soup
 I want caffeine in my system let's revive
 the hula hoop
 Maybe it's all too simple
 For our brains to figure it out
 What if the hokey pokey
 Is all it really is about
