| Stone the crows if you've done it again, | |
| if I've told you once, told you a thousand times. | |
| Sometimes I am so convinced we're casting pearl amongst the swine. | |
| Don't ever let me hear you say this is the life we folks must lead. | |
| We shun the limelight, shun the glare, | |
| and the circus built on a bigot's creed. | |
| Heaven is a place I'v heard but we haven't been there yet, I fear. | |
| We may have opened pearly gates but sometimes hell stills steals in here. | |
| Don't ever let me hear you say this is the life we folks must lead. | |
| Do you think silver turns our locks? | |
| What gold do you think paves our streets? | |
| You say we're in a different world now, | |
| where money and love go hand in hand. | |
| But can't you see we share this town, | |
| so why should we fight on our native land? | |
| Can't you see we share this town, | |
| so why on earth should we tear it down? |
| Stone the crows if you' ve done it again, | |
| if I' ve told you once, told you a thousand times. | |
| Sometimes I am so convinced we' re casting pearl amongst the swine. | |
| Don' t ever let me hear you say this is the life we folks must lead. | |
| We shun the limelight, shun the glare, | |
| and the circus built on a bigot' s creed. | |
| Heaven is a place I' v heard but we haven' t been there yet, I fear. | |
| We may have opened pearly gates but sometimes hell stills steals in here. | |
| Don' t ever let me hear you say this is the life we folks must lead. | |
| Do you think silver turns our locks? | |
| What gold do you think paves our streets? | |
| You say we' re in a different world now, | |
| where money and love go hand in hand. | |
| But can' t you see we share this town, | |
| so why should we fight on our native land? | |
| Can' t you see we share this town, | |
| so why on earth should we tear it down? |
| Stone the crows if you' ve done it again, | |
| if I' ve told you once, told you a thousand times. | |
| Sometimes I am so convinced we' re casting pearl amongst the swine. | |
| Don' t ever let me hear you say this is the life we folks must lead. | |
| We shun the limelight, shun the glare, | |
| and the circus built on a bigot' s creed. | |
| Heaven is a place I' v heard but we haven' t been there yet, I fear. | |
