lyrics

We have all seen better days
now our nose bleeds at the fray.
Mother may I ask you please
take us out with sympathy.

Golden road, golden road.
Old dirt path, can't get much slower.
Brother may I ask you please,
can you spare your perfect feet?

I got an eye for the road, an eye for the ditch.
I looked around and I couldn't find it.
I got down in the sky, high in the hole.
looked around I couldn't find it.

Now the lines have all been drawn,
no one is right no one is wrong.
Mother may I ask you please,
Judge us not for what we believe.

I got an eye for the road an eye for the ditch
I looked around I couldn't find it
I got down in the sky, high in the hole
I looked around I couldn't find my happy ending.

The beggars were basking in the moonshine,
the whistle of the wolves howling through.
The fire from the clouds, spitting on the garden,
the snakes stood up and gazed upon their shoes.
The graves of the slaves started dancing,
the smoke was breathing on the bellows,
The bullets rained the seas and beat the captain out of me.
We couldn't hear the bombing for the shells.
I don't think there is any more to tell,
I don't think there is any more to tell.
