Lyrics
- Mountains of Lhasa are feeling the rain
- People are walking the Potala lanes
- Preacher takes the school
- One boy breaks a rule
- Silly Boy Blue, blue
- Silly Boy Blue
- Yak butter statues that melt in the sun
- Cannot dissolve all the work you've not done
- A chela likes to feel
- That his overself pays the bill
- Silly Boy Blue, Blue
- Silly Boy Blue
- You wish and wish, and wish again
- You've tried so hard to fly
- You'll never leave your body now
- You've got to wait to die
- La la la la la, la la, la la la la
- La la la la la, la la, la la la la
- La la la, la la
- La la la, la la
- Silly Boy Blue, blue
- Silly Boy Blue
- Child of Tibet, you're a gift from the sun
- Reincarnation of one better man
- The homeward road is long
- You've left your prayers and song
- Silly Boy Blue, blue
- Silly Boy Blue
- Silly Boy Blue
- Silly Boy Blue
