What Can You Do?

for all you cheap believers
here's another cheap decree
when will you be comforted by your beliefs
oh yeah

they will approach the dealers
they will ask them for a hand
and together they'll waltz across the sand

and as they split they won't be leaving behind
no-one, but what can you do?

back in your coastal village
and yes there is just that one
look out towards that big old desert
an unforgiving sun

and every day you see the people at the edge of town
daydreaming of the wavering lights on the horizon
but what can you do?
but play the fool
huuuh

i took her face and with my hands
i turn on her eyes to mine
that's when i told her it was only a matter of time
yes and time will always move just the way that it must
so what can you do?

but every day just sees the pepole cra?ing on the streets ignoring those wavering lights on the horizon
but can we do?
but play the fool
huuuh
