Highlights - The Very Best of Yes

Roundabout

“He can’t move—but he can groove. "Meet the funkadelic guardian of the street: a mossy Jizo statue with a cosmic mission. By day, a silent watcher. By night, the soul-saving savior you never knew you needed. 🎵 "We love JIZO! JIZO loves us too!"– A funk anthem born of silliness, spirit, and a whole lotta JIZO LOVE.
動けなくても、ノることはできる。道端に立ち続ける苔むした地蔵は、実は――宇宙的使命を帯びた最もファンキーな守護者だった！

'Stone Cold Savior!! – JIZO LOVE! Ultimate Funk'

[Intro]
(A funky bassline kicks in, with a sharp brass stab)
Yeah! On a mission... a mission from the great beyond!

[Verse 1]
Standing on the roadside, in the sun and rain
Got this little red bib, to hide my soulful pain
You might think I'm just a statue, made of moss and stone
But I'm the toughest guardian that you've ever known

[Chorus]
("I got that JIZO LOVE, baby, steady and so deep")
Watchin' over travelers while the city is asleep
("I got that JIZO LOVE, a stone-cold guarantee")
Gonna save your soul from worldly misery! C'mon!
[Intense and supremely funky ad-lib performance by the brasses]

[Verse 2]
Little kids they come to me, with flowers in their hand
Whisper all their secrets, I'm the one who understands
The wind can blow, the snow can fall, I never make a sound
'Cause I'm the funkiest bodhisattva in this whole damn town!

[Chorus]
("I got that JIZO LOVE, a stone-cold guarantee")
Watchin' over travelers while the city is asleep
("I got that JIZO LOVE, a stone-cold guarantee")
Gonna save your soul from worldly misery! Oh yeah!

Oh-! yes! yes! yeah!
("We love JIZO! JIZO! loves us too! Oh, JIZO! JIZO! JIZO! Yeah! ")

[Bridge]
I can't dance, I can't shout, I can't even move my feet
But my spirit's groovin' to a cosmic funky beat
This ain't no charity, this ain't no simple grace
It's a sacred mission to protect this time and space!

[Last climax chorus]
Oh-! yeah! yeah! 
("We love JIZO! JIZO! loves us too! Oh, JIZO! JIZO! JIZO! Yeah! ")
JIZO! JIZO! JIZO! JIZO! yeah! ha!

[all vocals sing Outro]
Jizo Love! (Stone-cold love!)
Jizo Love! (Soul-deep love!)
Yeah... Standin' guard... for you...
(Music fades out with a final brass flourish)
