Main Street Eyes |
This whole country is scared of failure. |
My head keeps trying to sell me ambition. |
But in my heart, I want self-respect. |
Theres a conflict. |
Boy, I feel so outgunned today |
But Ill get up and fight back, anyway |
You and I aare not huge mainstream stars |
But unlike them, were really what we are |
We got main street eyes |
Watchin as the big boys roll by Under rotten television skies |
We got main street eyes |
I saw a kitten squashed in the street |
I read about a plastic surgeon and his art collection. |
We are played for suckers all the time |
Phony rock and roll |
Its a crime |
I dont want to dip myself in trash |
I dont want to give myself for cash |
We got main street eyes |
Tryin to do whats decent with our lives |
Under funny television skies |
We got main street eyes |
Walkin around sometimes |
I see a tension under the surface |
People are just about ready to explode. |
So hold me, and trust me I love you, dont worry. |
Keep your main street eyes |
Keep your main street eyes |
Keep your main street eyes |
