lyrics

I pick a tag off the I.D. tree, 'Hello'
I want to burn it down and never see another name
I see the thick smoke, pine needles withering (I did not set this fire)
I'm going to dig a hole and plant a new beginning (It wasn't me who
set this fire)

So I will hit my drum and you can hit yours too
And this will shake the earth, cause all our names are new
Ya I will hit my drum and you can hit yours too
And this will shake the earth cause all our names are new
All our names are new
I'm pleased to meet with you

Somebody help me to throw in the coals this tag I picked
My will is bound and I'd love to get a hand with this
The first name I got as a baby always felt nice
The first time I heard it from God took such a long time

So I will hit my drum and you can hit yours too
And this will shake the earth, cause all our names are new
Ya I will hit my drum and you can hit yours too
And this will shake the earth cause all our names are new
All our names are new
I'm pleased to meet with you
