Father's hands are lined with dirt
From long days in the field
And mothers hands are serving meals
In a cafe on Main Street
With mouths to feed
Just trying to keep clothing on our backs
And all I hear about is
How it's so bad, it's so bad
It's too bad, it's stupid
Too late, so wrong, so long
It's too bad that we had no time to rewind
Let's walk, let's talk
You left without saying goodbye
Although I'm sure you tried
You call the house from time to time
To make sure we're alive
But you weren't there
Right when I needed you the most
And now I dream about it
How it's so bad, it's so bad
It's too bad, it's stupid
Too late, so wrong, so long
It's too bad that we had no time to rewind
Let's walk, let's talk
It's so bad, it's too bad, it's stupid
Too late, so wrong, so long
It's too bad that we had no time to rewind
Let's walk, let's talk
Father's hands are lined with guilt
From tearing us apart
Guess it turned out in the end
Just look at where we are
Made it out, we still got clothing on our backs
And now I scream about it
And how it's so bad, it's so bad
it's so bad, it's so bad
It's too bad, it's stupid
Too late, so wrong, so long
It's too bad that we had no time to rewind
Let's walk, let's talk
It's so bad, It's too bad, it's stupid
Too late, so wrong, so long
It's too bad that we had no time to rewind
Let's walk, let's talk
Long time, let's walk, let's talkEverybody
we've gotta fight for ourselves
Everybody
we've gotta fight for ourselves.
Everybody
we've gotta fight for ourselves
Everybody
we've gotta fight for ourselves.
So many people
so many problems
There in the pretty city lights
where we've thrown it all away.
Well
if life is here before my eyes
then I find it hard to see
How the methods that we're told to use are gonna make us free.
Until then I say :
Everybody
we've gotta fight for ourselves
Everybody
we've gotta fight for ourselves.
All through the mystery
all through the heartache
She's got the only single thing that I'd never throw away.
When lightning strikes for the second time you'd come
and pull me through.
It's a battle that we all must make
so show me what to do -
And you said:
Everybody
we've got to fight for ourselves
Everybody
we've got to fight for ourselves.
There's a feeling growing that is in this land
There's a soul that's burning and it's in your hand.
Everybody
we've got to fight for ourselves
fight for ourselves.
So many people
so many problems
. . .
Everybody
we've got to fight for ourselves
. . .
Fight for ourselves
we've gotta fight for ourselves.
Everybody
fight for ourselves -
Everybody's gotta fight for themselves -
Everybody
fight for ourselves - fight
fight -
Everybody
fight for ourselves
everybody
fight for ourselves
Everybody.we've gottafightforourselves!
