Now I thought we'd come alive and

Stop all this drunken driving

You were the one who wanted to storm those gates

and kill those prophets that couldn't relate

But still you're the one who wanted to save your soul

With all your bullshit rock and roll

But now she hides her eyes

burns her house and hopes she dies





Chorus:

Never gettin' my hands dirty

Uh-huh, uh-huh

It's not just for myself, not just all for self, no

I figured we'd move it on up, move it on up, yeah

Not just for myself, not just all for self, no





Now he put your hand in mine

Come daddy come show me a sign

Now what I do I do for youths

The white and the black and the browns and the blues

Now promise comes in two foot waves

The moving earth and diggin' the graves

Now he tried to justify it

But he'll feel better once he tries it





Chorus (repeat to fade out)
