| Hey Mister Mayor, what the hell we gonna do?
|
| Tell the truth
|
| Say Mister Mayor, could I have a word with you?
|
| Am I getting through?
|
| Yes, I have seen the levees comin' down
|
| I’ve seen fire on the ground
|
| Money leavin' town
|
| Now I am growing older looking through
|
| This different point of view
|
| But I’m closer to the truth
|
| Yes I am
|
| Yes I am
|
| Where is the Savior?
|
| 'Cause he don’t look a thing like you
|
| Tell the truth
|
| Save it for later
|
| 'Cause you’ve had your time to prove
|
| Now your time is through
|
| Yes, I have seen the levees comin' down
|
| I’ve seen fire on the ground
|
| Money leavin' town
|
| Now I am growing older looking through
|
| This different point of view
|
| But I’m closer to the truth
|
| Yes I am
|
| Yes I am
|
| Yes I am
|
| Yes I am
|
| I lay low, I’ll cover my head
|
| What I know, I’ll keep it under my bed
|
| Though I try to steady my mind
|
| I get weary, what I might find
|
| 'Cause I have seen the levees comin' down
|
| I’ve seen the fire on the ground
|
| Money leavin' town
|
| And now I am growing older looking through
|
| This different point of view
|
| But I’m closer to the truth
|
| Yes I am
|
| Yes I am
|
| Yes I am
|
| Yes I am |
