Inconsolable 04:45
©Kill Bill: Volume 2 Soundtrack David Carradine: Once upon a time in China Some believe around the year, one-double aught-three. Head priest of The White Lotus Clan Pai Mei Was walking down the road Contemplating whatever a man with Pai Mei's infinite power would contemplate Which is another way of saying, who knows. When, a Shaolin monk appeared on the road traveling in the opposite direction. As the monk and the priest crossed paths... Pai Mei in a practically unfathomable display of generosity Gave the monk the slightest of nods. The nod, was not returned. Now was it the intention of the Shaolin monk to insult Pai Mei ? Or, did he just fail to see the generous social gesture? The motives of the monk, remain unknown. What is known, were the consequences. The next morning Pai Mei appeared at the Shaolin Temple, And demanded that the temple's head Abbot offer Pai Mei his neck to repay the insult. The Abbot, at first, tried to console Pai Mei, only to find, Pai Mei was inconsolable. So began, the massacre of the Shaolin Temple, And all sixty of the monks inside, At the fists of the White Lotus. And so began, the legend of Pai Mei's Five-Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique. Uma Thurman : And what praytell Is a five-point palm Exploding heart technique? The Legend of Pai Mei Lyrics David Carradine and Uma Thurman

Verse If we're so blind why do we hide Everything that's goin on inside In your eyes they don't lie No I won't cry These challenges are not so far away Come what may, what's left to say When loves here today Why do we feel this way Chorus Like a mermaid in the sky Untangling ocean tides Your so far and wide Do we learn to say goodbye keep unbinding all my ties I drift into your eyes That's where I want to lay Can we stay this way Say it will be ok I swim into the oceans way! LIke a mermaid in the sky Untangling Ocean tides You're so far & wide. Middle Eight So if we're to find a sight or sound Anything that's going on around Your my guide, my devine, I have found Come what may, what's left to say When loves here today Why do we feel this way.

Middle Eight The path just takes us on & on A truth or dare, when I don't know We kiss our dreams We're shining!
