Mean Time

Mean Time

They're counting the cost of sending in troops and the people suffer
we've already lost they're jumping through hoops trying to please each other
filling their faces good style and bury their heads
and mean time were crying for the dead crying meantime

She tried to be good but fell by the way hmm
its hard to accept but easy to play ooh yeau

a handful of pleasure a heart full of pain
and those who condemn are playing her game
they're playing mean time
Mean Time mean time mean time mean time

They're lining their pockets parading in pearls
and mean time we're crying for the world crying mean time

He's preaching the world the salvation call and the people suffer
the choice must be yours a fiery hell less we love each other
caught in the act a woman whose passion he shared
and mean time his flock lived by his word suffering meantime
Mean time mean time mean time mean time
Don't you know it's a Mean Time
