Letra de Home By Another Way

[Verso 1]
Those magic men the Magi, some people call them wise or Oriental, even kings
Well anyway, those guys, they visited with Jesus, they sure enjoyed their stay
Then warned in a dream of King Herod's scheme, they went home by another way

[Coro]

Yes, they went home by another way, home by another way
Maybe me and you can be wise guys too and go home by another way
We can make it another way, safe home as they used to say
Keep a weather eye to the chart on high and go home another way

[Verso 2]
Steer clear of royal welcomes, avoid a big to-do
A king who would slaughter the innocents will not cut a deal for you
He really, really wants those presents, he'll comb your camel's fur
Until his boys announce they've found trace amounts of your frankincense, gold and myth

[Coro]
Time to go home by another way, home by another way
You have to figure the Gods, saying play the odds, and go home by another way
We can make it another way, safe home as they used to say
Keep a weather eye to the chart on high and go home another way

[Verso 3]
Home is where they want you now
You can more or less assume that you'll be welcome in the end
Mustn't let King Herod haunt you so or fantasize his features when you're looking at a friend
Well it pleasures me to be here and to sing this song tonight
They tell me that life is a miracle and I figured that they're right
But Herod's always out there, he's got our cards on file
It's a lead pipe cinch, if we give an inch, old Herod likes to take a mile

[Coro]
It's best to go home by another way, home by another way
We got this far to a lucky star, but tomorrow is another day
We can make it another way, safe home as they used to say
Keep a weather eye to the chart on high and go home another way
