Lyrics:

Thought I saw you running with the west wind in your face
You were out on the beach, screaming that we are a human race
There was someone who was watching you, they were laughing in the sun
They were feeling that the day was fine and the living had begun

What does it mean now?
What does it mean now?
What does it mean now?
Yeah, you'd be giving it all away, away

Yeah (Yeah)
Yeah (Yeah)
Yeah (Yeah)

Crawling into light, I see the meaning of it all
But I just can't work out why I still feel irrelevant and small
I will look into the night sky and I'll see a blazing sun
It's so far away, but it looks like there, your life has just begun


What does it mean now?
What does it mean now?
What does it mean now?
Yeah, I'm taking my time to say, "What does it mean?"

Like a light surrounds your face
It's like a light surrounds you
It's like a

Like a light surrounds your face
Like a light surrounds your face
Like a light surrounds you

What does it mean now?
Seeking out a joy of life
I turned over every stone
In my dreams it was, in reality I just stayed in alone

I was traveling over the mind
I couldn't use my eyes to see
I was trying to get to somewhere
That was a better place to be

What did I mean now?
What does it mean now?
What does it mean now?
Yeah, you're giving it all away
What does it mean now?

What does it mean now?
What does it mean now?
Yeah, you're giving it all away, away

(Yeah) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Like a light surrounds your face
It's like a light surrounds you
It's like a

Like a light surrounds your face
It's like a light surrounds your face
It's like a light surrounds you
What does it mean now?

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
What does it mean now?
What does it mean now?
What does it mean now?
(Yeah)
I love the so-bad-it's-good album art! You don't just make something that mystifyingly awful without some grander hidden purpose.
thats one of the worse designed album covers Ive ever seen
i don't see the jagger, but i thought that this was neil when i first heard it. yclept wrote:

Always fun to play "guess the song that Karl is ripping off now"...I hear "Mr. Tambourine Man" in this one.
Maybe so, but Eddie Vedder is the master at ripping off riffs.

I thought the singer was Todd Rundgren the first couple of times I heard this song.
hee hee. Bob Dylan - Like a Rolling Stone World Party - What Does It Mean Now?
Always good to hear Karl's voice.
Karl is pretty cool.

First I've heard of this new WP CD. I like it, always enjoy their sound.
"..this singer sounds like a wimpy offspring of Neil Young and Mick Jagger..... it's a curse to have grown up in the 60's... everything sounds derivative" Yeah, I *get* that.
I don't think that there is anything to mention about this piece, than the dog on the cover. Pretty boring and everyday music.
Yes, the cover is cool..
