Yeah these people have it made
|
they got all the money, everything
|
they know it all so they got nothing else to know
|
forget it all when they fly back from mexico
|
|
like the wolves that had it made
|
they got food for years, mountains for days
|
up the mountain gotta find what the sheep had found
|
back to the den they find that the cubs had drowned
|
|
so why would we try
|
if we can wait
|
just have ourselves a time
|
free like the mind
|
it always waits
|
for friends to come around
|
so they'll get high
|
and higher still
|
and slowly fall behind
|
the warmth it came
|
in waves of pain
|
we really had ourselves a time
|
yeah we had ourselves a time
|
|
if you find me at the dead dog
|
boy i gotta warn you
|
these people they
|
they didn't try
|
they didn't try
|
and they lie and they lie and they lie
|
they lie
|
they lie
|
|
still born still taking shape
|
it took ten of them, ten years, ten times
|
what it takes
|
forget it all just shove all the poor in there
|
the hungry men swallowed all we fit in there
|
|
so why would we try
|
if we can wait
|
just have ourselves a time
|
free like the mind
|
it always waits
|
for friends to come around
|
so they'll get high
|
and higher still
|
and slowly fall behind
|
the warmth it came
|
in waves of pain
|
we really had ourselves a time
|
yeah we had ourselves a time
|
|
if you find me at the dead dog
|
boy i gotta warn you
|
these people they,
|
they didn't try
|
they didn't try
|
and they lie and they lie and they lie
|
they lie
|
they lie
|
