Man of the Moment |
| The man of the moment is just way ahead of his time |
| Could be why you see just distance in his eyes |
| He could be watching ashes grow |
| Where all your best seeds were just now sown |
| But for all i know there’s far more i don’t… |
| New rays of light must fight for a place between the leaves |
| So son don’t seem surprised to find no shade beneath this tree |
| Just like abe' you can’t think twice |
| When offered your piece of the franchise |
| Now every kid expects a birth-right… |
| Hand-me-down, hand-me-down oh brother |
| Now it’s your turn, it’s your turn to deliver… |
| Hand-me-down, hand-me-down oh brother |
| What’s the measure of a man, made to measure… |
| It’s some privilege to claim that only the strong survive — |
| If you can choose the time and place and what you’ll sacrifice |
| We’ll all get our piece of the dream |
| And the have-nots will have to take another hit for the team |
| Well that’s just how it’s always been… |
| It went something like — garden. Tree. Adam and eve. And father, pray, forgive |
| But if i never hear that shit again i’ll live and live and live and live |
| And whatever made the world go round before |
| Is probably what will keep it going round after they’re gone |
| But for all i know there’s far more i don’t… |
| Hand-me-down, hand-me-down oh brother |
| Now it’s your turn, it’s your turn to deliver… |
| Hand-me-down, hand-me-down oh brother |
| What’s the measure of a man, made to measure |
| Made to measure |
