Strange days
Stranger people
You’ve seen the headlines
You think the bible is cruel
Look out your front door
If the book is right
Sinner
You better pray
——-
New hurricane
Everyday
——
jerk you around
And you’ll say it’s ok
——
It’s just the game
But you can’t play
You’ve been dealt a losing hand
No one wins out here in the wasteland
——-
If you’re not careful
Look out kid
You’ll be so confused
They’ll have you murder the truth
You’re hanging yourself
Your necks in their noose
They don’t really care
As long as your death is in the news
——-
Strange days
He’s standing in the middle
Worried mind
Tired eyes
He can’t win
He was born a dead man in working shoes ….
Just a pawn in their game
——-
Now like dylan said
This place ain’t doing me any good
I used to care, man in the middle,
but things have changed.
——-
I knew a woman
With eyes like diamonds
Her lips were crimson sweet
and when she laughed
It was gin to me…
She played her guitar
Recited her poetry
And I knew then
Everybody loses
Everybody wins
But you can never come back
And re live
