Modest Manifesto |
| I’ve got ideas that can save the planet |
| I’ll scrutinize what we take for granted |
| With follow through it all should pan out |
| But sadly everyone is too proud |
| Don’t need a gimmick or compensation |
| I’ll show it all through a demonstration of |
| Unapologetic, sincere demeanor so you’ll |
| Recognize I’m for real here |
| I’m not reinventing, don’t call to my attention |
| That what I’m putting in isn’t breaking all new ground |
| At least I know it’s true — I couldn’t lie to you |
| Take my word — it’s not true gold, but |
| I can promise it’s as real as real gets I will not be sold |
| Lay me down in graves of debt |
| I’ll stick around as long as I can breathe I’m broke but not done yet |
| I’m in a hole with four friendly pigeons |
| We’ll fly away from the public opinions — |
| «it's been overdone,» «what he said, she said» |
| We’ll carry our own banner and just say screw them |
| I don’t know why I’ve spent time convincing |
| Because I know it’s not heart I’m missing |
| The Souls have taught me how to love the music |
| Sadly to a generation that’s confusing |
| So leave me to my 'phones, they’ll never let me down I know |
| I’ll stay awake for days and hear my favorite singers say… |
| Take my word — it’s not true gold, but |
| I can promise it’s as real as real gets I will not be sold |
| Lay me down in graves of debt |
| I’ll stick around as long as I can breathe I’m broke but not done yet |
| Do you know what this does to me? |
| It’s disheartening and it drives me crazy |
| So I’ll say… |
| Take my word — it’s not true gold, but |
| I can promise it’s as real as real gets I will not be sold |
| Lay me down in graves of debt |
| I’ll stick around as long as I can breathe I’m broke but not done yet |
