The cycle of is here to see In all its fine But the way we it seems to be very weird to me and I cry out
Pettiness like lady's It to complicate the matter I grit my teeth, my chatter There's nothing makes me madder and I leap out
For big or little, great or It really doesn't at all The way we our feet, and hem and haw 'Cause everyone's afraid they'll fall or else be out
What's right for me are to you make a damn on what you do 'Cause whether or not you make it I thought you already knew that I'll keep you on
And the War III And the world Will the same size Headlines in the
From all seen of politics Its just a greasy big money Geared to run on so slick To you think this is all there is you got, I'm afraid
How they con the middle man Into thinking he has got a To play in the of the promised land He owes himself to the of man, get ridiculous
Cheap can hire someone To do his work with a gun While the points at anyone And says, "I, your country the killing done, go do it now, boy"
But the war is bad enough It can break you no matter how tough But the of hoopla stuff It makes you think you can't do enough for the symbols
And the other They the same as we And regret I But one country to for my life
Preacher stands in his holy Saying, "God if you do it now" You back when the chips are down Youll find they've all gone underground to pray for you
And the twist to preach He feels that he can to me The right way to go and raise a And I'm forced to at him He mean to say, guessing
As the is getting higher The poverty poor, the pregnant Are waiting on the Pope to be For some new contraceptive attire saying, "It's now"
It's a behind a one way mirror Listening tip-toed at the to hear outside won't speak the year Then, they'll slip a note out how they feel about pierced
But the made now For the changing Are a late We'll be out of by tomorrow
Her mother played on She said, "It was the holy to be" The things had were evilry When it came time for matrimony she and died there
Her sister at fourteen, very known She all kicks came lying there prone But the fundamental fact not spoken at her feeling like a chewed on bone and why, she wondered
And one who dug moving about Very liberal and of' spoke out How she was cool and No doubt the blankets up The lights turned out, condescending
And a couple together for five or six A marriage license, they'd been near But social and loss of job fear Got married and divorced in half a year, they couldn't cut it
It's all talked And then lived around But is right for me be perversity in any state law book
I'm told the minstrel at one Was allowed to sing and his rhymes To comment on the news of the Saying, "What's in minds?", and he made tips for it
But today try singing on street curb the news in everyday words The people pass by and is heard Or they'll hit you where it hurts or they'll keep their ears closed
One man said, "Boy, I dig stuff I want you to come play at my put your name in lights up above But just remember, I got a club to run, so don't you be too
It's not the who sell us out Its the damn censors who about All life learned adjectives and vowels And say my mouth is much too foul to speak to you
But try to hit a And if the fails Then the you use to describe that bruise That's basic
I hike and sang the songs everybody knew and sang along To amuse I wrote some songs Speaking about right and wrong, and I'm a little different
So a record company, you well Wanted to know if my would sell I said, "Yes, I like it very If you don't, sir, you can go to somebody else change
I kept hope on and bumming to my friends who dig that sound A few guys said, "Won't you to my town" I ask fair bread, they put me their Caddie's mortgaged
I one deal like it's you and me guy said he'd be lots of use to me But when I found he's putting the to me I made it back out on the street singing new folk
And if there's time And the hill ain't too What I wrote I might play and make some tips for it
Don't, next, the issue of the hulk
