Standing by the highway
A suitcase by my side
And no place I want to go
I just thought I'd catch a ride

Many people look my way
And many pass me by
In moments of reflection, I wonder why

To the thieves, I am a bandit, whoa
The mothers think I'm a son
To the preachers, I'm a sinner
Lord, I'm not the only one

To the sad ones, I'm unhappy
To the losers, I'm a fool
To the students, I'm a teacher
With the teachers, I'm unschooled

To the hobos, I'm imprisoned
By everything I own
To the soldier, I'm just someone else
Who's dying to go home

The general sees a number
A politician's tool
To my friends, I'm just an equal
In this whirlpool

We are amazed but not amused
By all the things you say that you'll do
Though much concerned but not involved
With decisions that are made by you

But we are sick and tired of hearing your song
Telling how you are gonna change right from wrong
'Cause if you really want to hear our views
You haven't done nothin'

It's not too cool to be ridiculed
But you brought this upon yourself
The world is tired of pacifiers
We want the truth and nothing else, yeah

And we are sick and tired of hearing your song
Telling how you are gonna change right from wrong
'Cause if you really want to hear our views
You haven't done nothin'

Jackson 5 join along with me, say
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop

We would not care to wake up to the nightmare
That's becoming real life
But when misled who knows a person's mind
Can turn as cold as ice, mm hmm

Why do you keep on making us hear your song
Telling us how you are changing right from wrong
'Cause if you really want to hear our views
You haven't done nothin'
Yeah, nothin'

Say
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop

Sing it loud for the people
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop
Doo doo wop, doo doo wop

We are spirit bound to this flesh
We go round one foot nailed down
But bound to reach out and beyond this flesh
Become Pneuma

We are will and wonder
Bound to recall, remember
We are born of one breath, one word
We are all one spark, sun becoming

In season, out of season
What's the difference when you don't know the reason
In one hand bread, the other a stone
The hunter enters the forest

Blind by design
I've gotten the hang of not resisting
Who cares who's listening
Popular press
And we've got the video and the movies
Let's feed the zombies

Daggers and contacts
And bright shiny limos

That turns into a lifeboat





Glimmering nightgowns
Poisonous as cobras
Silencer under the heel of my shoe

The twig-smashed landscape
Is rolling and waving
Wolf wild wide wind walking
Soft smoke star space stalking
This is the comic book end
We have waited for
And not believed in
Oh nearly not at all

John the Revelator put him in an elevator 
Take him up to the highest high
Take him up to the top where the mountains stop
Let him tell his book of lies

John the Revelator,
He's a smooth operator
It's time we cut him down to size
Take him by the hand
And put him on the stand
Let us hear his alibis

Keep reminding myself

They're just hurting inside
Keep fooling myself

And they're all full of love
It's just their patience gets tried

The graph on the wall
Tells the story of it all
Picture it now, see just how
The lies and deceit gained a little more power

Confidence taken in
By a sun tan and a grin

The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves after all
The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves after all


Keep reminding myself
That people are good
And when they do bad things
They're just hurting inside
Keep fooling myself
That everyone cares
And they're all full of love
It's just their patience gets tried
