A Better Way |
Well he’s waiting at the bus stop, seven years old |
Breathing on his collar in the freezing cold |
And he doesn’t know a thing about minimum wage |
But his mother’s gone early and she gets in late |
And by the time he’s 18 he’s got nobody else |
But god knows college won’t pay for itself |
So he traded in scraping for a uniform |
And I’m starting to see what he’s fighting for |
Standing on the front line |
Now he’s waiting on a land mine |
And maybe there’s a better way |
Maybe there’s a better way |
Mona Lisa moved up and she moved away |
From the people she knew, now she works all day |
For a walk-in closet and a master bed |
She swore that she’d never be poor again |
And she can’t stop shopping, she’s so damn bored |
And I’m starting to see what we’re fighting for |
Standing on the front line |
Living in a gold mine |
And maybe there’s a better way |
Maybe there’s a better way |
Maybe there’s a better way |
I did some diving on the street today |
I put my head against a window pane |
I did some thinking about the way it is |
I did some thinking about the way we live and |
I wanna talk about Jesus Christ |
I wanna talk about living a lie |
I wanna talk about the Pentagon |
It doesn’t matter what side your on, well |
I’m only really trying to figure it out |
But you can’t hear me cause you talk so loud |
And maybe there’s a better way |
Maybe there’s a better way |
Maybe there’s a better way |
Then sending them off to die |
Maybe there’s a better way |
Then drinking alone tonight |
Maybe there’s a better way |
Maybe there’s a better way |
Then sending them off to die |
Maybe there’s a better way |
Then drinking alone tonight |
Maybe there’s a better way |
