Evil it's been here all along
|
Good things they just seem to have come and gone
|
In my life I have seen so much go wrong
|
And there's only one way left for us to get along
|
|
You got to bend a little one way or the other
|
You got to leave your mind open to discover
|
Seems I've been fightin' it all along
|
You got to bend a little no matter which side you're on
|
Or soon you'll be gone
|
|
Papers they print it every day
|
Housewife wraps the garbage then throws it away
|
I don't guess she thinks they have that much to say
|
But when the time is right she'll be the lady with so much to pay
|
|
You got to bend a little one way or the other
|
You got to leave your mind open to discover
|
Seems I've been fightin' it all along
|
You got to bend a little no matter which side you're on
|
Or soon you'll be gone
|
|
History it teaches much too well
|
Nations had to rise up before they fell
|
And my eyes see the story they're tryin' to tell
|
And tonight I think I heard the final toll of the bell
|
We better...
|
|
Bend a little one way or the other
|
You got to leave your mind open to discover
|
Seems I've been fightin' it all along
|
You got to bend a little no matter which side you're on
|
Or soon you'll be gone
|
