there's a red cloud hanging over us

and it's so big and it's gonna burst

all you people with your heads in the ground

hey brother, where you bound?



and they're no good and they're everywhere

try to tell you, but you just don't care

try to hear you but you don't make a sound

hey brother, where you bound?

hey brother, where you bound?



and you don't know what they're gonna do

and you don't know how they feel

and you don't know what they're tellin' you

is it a lie or is it real

and the next thing that you know is

that they walk out on the deal



and the message that they're giving you

is the same old alibi

if you don't quite see their point of view

then they treat you like a spy

and the phone rings and you disappear

in the middle of the night



can't you see they're on the move

don't know what you're trying to prove

but you sit there oh so cool

like they never broke no rules



and the cat flies and the crow walks

and the ghost dies and the sow talks

and they tell us that they'll be good as gold

b'lieve nothing that you're told

hey brother, where's your soul?



make a move in one direction

try to make some compromise

but they greet you with rejection

makin' out you're tellin' lies

then they turn around and tell you

better get down from the sky



for the sake of all that's holy

listen good to what i say

i can feel them all around me

they could be here any day

but you act like you don't know me

why d' you look at me that way



if there's one thing that is clear

we gotta get away from here

we've gotta leave this place

it's just a hopeless case

ain't no one else to blame

we're gonna lose this game



hey brother get off my back

i gotta tell you, you're way off the track

they got a hatred deep down inside

ain't gonna let them take me alive

i'm gonna burn them down, just wait and see

ain't gonna let them walk over me

boy you ain't got no heart and soul

and your mind is weak and your blood's runnin' cold



You better move, you better hide

they're gettin' in, they're gettin' inside

if you get caught you better know

they're gonna reap, you're gonna sow

don't be a fool, we gotta go

ain't no place safe for us to stay

we better move on, we better move on
