You're gonna have to serve somebody.
They'll stone ya when you're at the breakfast table.
False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin,;
Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in.
A saxophone someplace far off played
I wasn't born to lose you.
He said his name was Columbus;
I just said, "Good luck."
Gon' walk on down that dirt road 'til I'm right beside the sun
You don't want a love that's pure;
You wanna drown love;
You want a watered-down love
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me
So long, New York.;
Howdy, East Orange.
Someone else is speakin' with my mouth, but I'm listening only to my heart.
The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
And, when I was through;
I filled up my shoe;
And brought it to you.
Either I'm too sensitive or else I'm gettin' soft.
God is in heaven;
And we all want what's his;
But power and greed and corruptible seed;
Seem to be all that there is
Nations are angry, cursed are some,;
People are expecting a false peace to come.
Don’t think twice, it’s all right
On the rising curve,;
Where the ways of nature will test every nerve,;
You won't get anything you don't deserve,;
Where we were born in time.
Sometimes I feel so low-down and disgusted
Heart of mine be still,;
You can play with fire, But you'll get the bill
What drives me to you is what drives me insane.
Gon' walk on down until I'm right beside the sun;
I'm gonna have to put up a barrier to keep myself away from everyone.
The sky is erupting, I must go where it's quiet.
Somebody's got to find your trail,;
I guess it must be up to me.
You're the one I adore, come over here and give me more
They say ev'rything can be replaced
Let me ask you one question;
Is your money that good
Whatever you gonna do,;
Please do it fast.
Have you got some unfinished business?;
Is there something holding you back?;
Are you thinking for yourself;
Or are you following the pack?
