Lyrics Half Ass Moses - Hard Working Americans

Half Ass Moses

Everything was shaking
Sky rippled and spit
Brush caught fire
When the lightning hit
The sun had opened
So I could see the land
The Lord had twenty commandments for me
He said, «Show the world»
He said, «Etch them in stone»
I said, «Shit, man!
That sounds like too much work
«For just one man alone»
He said that anyone could do it
I wouldn’t need no help
I said «Screw it then, and do it yourself»
I said do it yourself, it’s complicated
The sun’s coming up and the records fading
I asked you to go
You didn’t say no
You told me that you would
And then you did not show
And then you told me
You never intended to go
You can’t learn something that you already know
I made it alone on the road I’m on (I already knew that)
The here and now or the dead and gone (Oh)
Coming home or the running away
You’re gonna need my help someday
You’re gonna need my help someday
When the record faded
Another one played
The quicker it went
The longer we stayed
The longer we stayed
The less we were moved
By the block we paved and the nothing it proved
I made it alone on the road I’m on
The here and now or the dead and gone
Coming home or the running away
You’re gonna need my help someday
I made it alone on the road I’m on
The here and now or the dead and gone
Coming home or the running away
You’re gonna need my help someday
You’re gonna need my help someday
You’re gonna need my help someday
You’re gonna need my help someday
(when the record faded…)
