Lyrics:
[Instrumental intro]
Chop that wood
Carry water
What's the sound of one hand clappin?
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
Every second, every minute
It keeps changin to somethin different
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
It says it's non-attachment
Non-attachment, non-attachment
I'm in the here and now, and I'm meditating
And still I'm sufferin, but that's my problem
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
(Wake up)
[Morrison blows a bridge on a diatonic harmonica]
Enlightenment says the world is nothin
Nothin but a dream, everything's an illusion
And nothin is real
Good or bad baby
You can change it anyway you want
You can rearrange it
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
Chop that wood
And carry water
What's the sound of one hand clappin?
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
All around baby, you can see
You're making your own reality everyday because
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
(One more time)
[Second bridge]
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
(It's up to you)
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
(It's up to you everyday)
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
(It's always up to you)
Enlightenment, don't know what it is
(It's up to you, the way you think)

A wise old man said that what is "truth" is based largely on your point of view.
This video is just one person's view of the world we're in.
After all, your reality is up to you.
