I said, "I wonder how it is I'm standing here, while war is raging everywhere under the sky? | |
I feel defeated here by everything, cheated here by everyone on every side | |
I want to take you to a quiet place and never ask the meaninglessness to reply | |
When will we get an hour to celebrate, find the time to breathe a sigh? | |
I've been working too hard to be living, and later | |
Walking all night, till I'm shivering, and is it | |
Wasting the time I've been given, to maybe | |
Wait for the day of oblivion? | |
I want to take it to the president, him and all his cabinet, with a broom | |
I want to sweep the halls of arrogance, sweep the walls of the excrement of these baboons | |
But I respect and prize the covenant, I respect the process, I respect the rules | |
When will we find a chord as resonant as to shake the sheets and make us move? | |
You've been working too hard to be living, and later | |
Walking all night, till you're shivering, and is it | |
Wasting the time you've been given, to maybe | |
Wait for the day of oblivion?" | |
And she said, "Roll out and make your mark, pull on your boots and march | |
Then roll on and meet me where you'll find me doing my own part | |
Roll out your dented car, maybe it won't roll far | |
But if you do everything you can, well, babe, that's more than a start" | |
And she said, "Roll out and make your mark, pull on your boots and march | |
Then roll on and meet me where you'll find me good and ready | |
Sometimes it's gonna hurt, sometimes you're gonna deserve it | |
But if you hold on to what you've got, I know you'll keep it steady, keep it steady | |
So there's no end to work, so there's no end to murk | |
So everything else is dirt, but I am pure and steady | |
So cut out the morbid verse, I know you'll make it work | |
And how're you gonna save the world when the world ain't ready, world ain't ready?" |
