2024 (Live From the Vic In Chicago) - Cage the Elephant

Don't let anyone say that it's just a game For I've seen other teams and it's never the Same When you're born in Chicago you are blessed And you're healed The first time you walk into Wrigley Field Our heroes wear pinstripes and heroes in Blue Give us the chance to feel like heroes too Whether we'll win and if we should lose We know someday we'll go all the way Yeah, someday we'll go all the way We are one with the Cubs, with the Cubs We're in love Yeah, hold our head high as the underdogs We are not fairweather but farweather fans Like brothers in arms, in the streets and the Stands Theres magic in the ivy and the old score Board The same one I stared at as a kid keeping Score In a world full of greed I could never want More Someday we'll go all the way Yeah, someday we'll go all the way Someday we'll go all the way Yeah, someday we'll go all the way Someday we'll go all the way Here's to the men and the legends we've Known Teaching us faith and giving us hope United we stand and united we'll fall Down to our knees the day we win it all Yeah Ernie Banks said well lets play two Or did he mean two hundred years In the same ball park, our diamond, our jewel The home of our joy and our tears Keeping traditions and wishes made new The place where our grandfathers' fathers They grew The spiritual feeling if i ever knew If you aint been, I am sorry for you And when the day comes for that last Winning run And I'm crying and covered in beer I look to the sky and know I was right To think someday we'll go all the way Yeah, someday we'll go all the way Yeah, someday we'll go all the way Yeah, someday we'll go all the way Yeah, someday we'll go all the way Yeah, someday we'll go all the way Oh, someday we'll go all the way Yeah, someday we'll go all the way Yeah, someday we'll go all the way

How many times have i seen you running Just one step ahead of the past? So many nights have i seen it coming I try to talk to you when you pass I don't know who you were before i met you You keep your secret safe with a mask It's almost as though the truth is out to get you You're just a runaway from the past Girl, we've got a love worth keeping Maybe there's a way to let it go Someday when your demons are sleeping Let me know, let me know Come out of the darkness, baby Come in from the night You can let the light Wash it from your mind Open the blinds So many times have i seen you crying Never knowing what it's about I do my best, i just keep on trying To find a way inside to let it out Girl, we've got a love worth making It would be a shame to close the show Now you got a chance worth taking Let me know, let me know Come out of the darkness, baby Come in from the night You can let the light Wash it from your mind Come out of the darkness, baby Come in from the night Open up your life, leave the past behind Open up the blinds

Saturday in the park I think it was the Fourth of July Saturday in the park I think it was the Fourth of July People dancing, people laughing A man selling ice cream Singing Italian songs Eh Cumpari, ci vo sunari Can you dig it? (yes, I can) And I've been waiting such a long time For Saturday Another day in the park I think it was the Fourth of July Another day in the park I think it was the Fourth of July People talking, really smiling A man playing guitar And singing for us all Will you help him change the world Can you dig it? (yes, I can) And I've been waiting such a long time For today Slow motion riders fly the colours of the day A bronze man still can tell stories his own way Listen children all is not lost All is not lost, oh no, no Funny days in the park Every day's the Fourth of July Funny days in the park Every day's the Fourth of July People reaching, people touching A real celebration Waiting for us all (Waiting for us all) If we want it, really want it Can you dig it?

On the other side of town lives a sabertooth tiger Paint's a real good picture, he's an excellent liar His mouth is full of sand and he's dying to meet you His mouth is full of sand he's just dying to meet you On the other side of town lives a sabertooth tiger Runaway runaway runaway from the beast Got a bullet in your back and you're shaking at the knees Runaway runaway runaway from the beast Got a bullet in your back, runaway from the beast Colder than an ice cube and faster than the fastest cheetah He's hiding in the kitchen he's a right brain eater His mouth is full of sand and he's dying to meet you His mouth is full of sand he's just dying to meet you On the other side of town lives a sabertooth tiger Runaway runaway runaway from the beast Got a bullet in your back and you're shaking at the knees Runaway runaway runaway from the beast Got a bullet in your back, runaway from the beast He's a sabertooth tiger Runaway runaway runaway from the beast Got a bullet in your back and you're shaking at the knees Runaway runaway runaway from the beast Got a bullet in your back and you're shaking at the knees Runaway runaway runaway from the beast Got a bullet in your back and you're shaking at the knees Runaway runaway runaway from the beast Got a bullet in your back, runaway from the beast

The time has finally come you get a mouth full You only act on greed and by your actions this is proved And can't you see the flowers dying all around you Got your hands in the devils pockets Got everything to lose And so you lash out To crush the ones below Or all the ones that you fear most And you call this crowd control well let me break it down for you The fire in your veins Is just a joke you tell yourself Another way to cut the cost To hide your face from all the guilt And it's a shame to have to say You had to kill to gain control But at least you made some money Hey, let the good times roll It's your dream to be the king of all creation As far as I'm concerned you've hung your shadow on the wall And though your fingers never really pulled the trigger Your hands are just as guilty, you're the one who bought the blood Again you lash out To hush the ones who know Couse they're the ones that you fear most And it's called damage control Well let me break it down for you The fire in your veins Is just a joke you tell yourself Another way to cut the cost To hide your face from all the guilt And it's a shame to have to say You had to kill to gain control again But at least you made some money Hey, let the good times roll Oh my the greed has now consumed you Your eyes fade as you fall into the ocean You move fast to feed your lust for money You dive down now your caught in the commotion All this and you trade it in for nothing A cheap lie you put it in your pocket All this and you trade it in for nothing Oh my I can see your heart has met it's end Say hello to Judas Say hello to Judas Say hello to Judas Say hello to Judas Say hello to Judas Say hello to Judas Say hello to Judas
