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 |
