Compared Child - TUYU

Love the lie and lie the love Hangin' on, with a push and shove Possession is the motivation That is hangin' up the God-damn nation Looks like we always end up in a rut (everybody now!) Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? Slaughterhouse is killin' hogs Twisted children killin' frogs Poor dumb rednecks rollin' logs Tired old ladies kissin' dogs Hate the human, love that stinking mutt (I can't stand it!) Try to make it real - compared to what? The President, he's got his war Folks don't know just what it's for Nobody gives us rhyme or reason Have one doubt, they call it treason We're chicken-feathers, all without one gut (God damn it!) Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? (Sock it to me, now) Church on Sunday, sleep and nod Tryin' to duck the wrath of God Preacher's fillin' us with fright Tryin' to tell us what he thinks is right He really got to be some kind of nut (I can't use it!) Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? Where's that bee and where's that honey? Where's my God and where's my money Unreal values, crass distortion Unwed mothers need abortion Kind of brings to mind ol' young King Tut (He did it now) Tried to make it real - compared to what?!

She'd given everything she could give Twenty years of kindness made her sad Kindness never made enough to live So she sold the very last thing that she had As she held her hand out to him as he drove around the block He mouthed through the window just hold on I've held on many years now and I haven't found a lot Hold on, hold on to what? So hold on, hold on to what? Hold on, hold on to what? Hold on, hold on to what? Holding on is harder When it's something you've not got I'll need a pair of stilts If I'm to ever reach the top So hold on, hold on to what? Hold on, hold on to what? Hold on, hold on to what?

Holding on is harder When it's something you've not got I'll need a pair of stilts If I'm to ever reach the top So hold on, hold on to what? Hold on, hold on to what? Hold on, hold on to what? Sixty years and he's looking his worst Sitting in the park where she'd died Running hands through his final hair These are the words that he cried Hold on, hold on, hold on To achieve the American dream You need a trampoline to achieve the counter effect Get that whiskey down your neck Hold on, hold on, hold on To achieve the American dream You need a trampoline to achieve the counter effect Get that whiskey down your neck Hold on, hold on, hold on Chamberlain had his paper Jesus had His cross they held on We held on to what?
