Posted By: M_H


1. All of us, at times, we might work too hard To have it too fast and too much, And anyone can fill his life up With things he can see but he just cannot touch.

2. Nations are angry, cursed are some, People are expecting a false peace to come.

3. Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble, Ancient footprints are everywhere. You can almost think that you're seein' double On a cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs.

4. It's such a sad thing to see beauty decay It's sadder still, to feel your heart torn away

5. Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn Suicide remarks are torn From the fool's gold mouthpiece

6. He looked into her eyes when she stopped to ask If he wanted to dance, he had a face like a mask.

7. Are you frightened of the box you keep him in While his genocide fools and his friends rearrange Their religion of the little ten women That backs up their views but your face is so bruised

8. I'm avoidin' the Southside the best I can These memories I got, they can strangle a man

9. For the chains of the sea
Will have busted in the night
And will be buried at the bottom of the ocean.

10. Einstein, disguised as Robin Hood With his memories in a trunk Passed this way an hour ago With his friend, a jealous monk
