You could spend your time
|
In a darkened room
|
Just to gather folks opinions
|
Can you stand the heat?
|
Can you wrong the rights
|
And I love you, thanks a million
|
|
And if there's a god
|
Let him strike you down
|
Knowing that you can't deliver
|
But you held me up
|
And you hung me out
|
And we're waiting still for you to bring
|
|
Light to a darkened room
|
But I know you will
|
It'll make my day
|
When I see your face
|
On a dollar bill
|
And they counted you out
|
Then they counted you in
|
And they're counting still
|
And for all the lies you're about to tell
|
May the lord make us
|
Truely thankfull
|
|
In a two horse race
|
If you bet each way
|
Could you maybe stay the distance
|
And if I should hide
|
From your puppeteers
|
Will they make me look ridiculous
|
Did you like the game
|
Can you take the blame
|
After all the dust has settled
|
Did you ever hope
|
For a hopeless world
|
Hungry for the time that you'd bring a
|
|
Light to a darkened room
|
But I know you will
|
It'll make my day
|
When I see your face
|
On a dollar bill
|
And they counted you out
|
Then they counted you in
|
And they're counting still
|
And for all the lies you're about to tell
|
May the lord make us
|
Truely thankfull
|
|
We could talk all night
|
Never touch the side
|
But I don't mean to demean you
|
Ever felt the cold
|
When you saw the light
|
Did the mirror show that dream of you
|
All the endless miles
|
And the babies smiles
|
While the mothers pledge allegiance
|
To uphold the wrong
|
To opress the right
|
Ready to sign up when you bring the
|
|
Light to a darkened room
|
But I know you will
|
It'll make my day
|
When I see your face
|
On a dollar bill
|
They counted you out
|
Then they counted you in
|
And they're counting still
|
And for all the lies you're about to tell
|
May the lord make us
|
Truely thankfull
|
