calling all cons, all the overlooked
|
time is running out, world is overcooked
|
fire in the sky, evil in the street
|
blood is everywhere, haven't been to sleep
|
teeth are falling out, eyes are turning red
|
curled up in a ball, on a burning bed
|
beaten to a pulp, stronger than a horse
|
reality is cruel, so we're men of course
|
|
war is being waged, bridges being built
|
forests being cut, truth is being killed
|
someone better pay, sharpen all the knives
|
swallow all the swords, don't apologize
|
teach a man to fish, take away his rights
|
you can run away, you can stay and fight
|
helicopter blades, ordinary god
|
artificial limbs, ignored and very odd
|
written on a wall, hidden in a book
|
television screams, but i didn't look
|
put it in your mouth, paint it black and white
|
everything is wrong, thats exactly right
|
whats the bottom line?
|
|
demolish all the clocks, smash the telephone
|
try to call the cops, free the prisoners
|
get your money back, break it into bits
|
they'll come running back
|
|
tell them all to go to hell, stay in bed
|
turn the tables over, no more playing dead
|
every move you make, being monitored
|
not a place to hide, nothing not a word
|
thoughts are on the loose, slowly going blind
|
bombs are being dropped, only blowing minds
|
pages filling up, tremors all around
|
spells are being cast, men are falling down
|
|
scary scary thoughts, very very bad,
|
very very bad, very very bad
|
someones at the door, shouldn't let them in
|
make a better plan, take your medicine
|
do the dirty work, do your duty first
|
music in the world, all the beauty hurts
|
rearrange the room, dead at 28
|
wish it wasn't so, gone at any rate
|
what you looking at? reflection in the spoon
|
say the magic words, your turn is coming soon
|
torture chamber walls, cemetery song
|
body slowing down, mind is very strong
|
all i need is books, kisses on my face
|
use to have the touch, this is gone to waste
|
eyes and ears and hands, tangled in the wire
|
pushed over the ledge, strangled in the fire
|
flowers in the trash, sleeping on the floor
|
looking for a place, no ones gone before
|
air conditioner, waiting for a train
|
focus on the source, can't ignore the pain
|
can't describe the sound, sick of being asked
|
|
living in a hole, now i'm free at last
|
this is what its like, try it on for size
|
walk around the block, limited supplies
|
dishes in the sink, kittens in the lake
|
start your praying when, bow begins to break
|
not a chance in hell, cows are coming home
|
set the woods on fire, borrow someones phone
|
borrow someones phone, call the number now
|
|
miracles are done, and i wonder how,
|
and i wonder where, and i wonder what,
|
and i wonder when, and i wonder who
|
|
[chorus]
|
|
why can't i do right, and will i die to night
|
step out in my sleep, slept out in the street
|
dogs and guns and stars, gods and funds and stars,
|
|
tell tell, it it, like like, tell it like it is ..
|
