THERE I SAID IT 022815 - CUSHIONS

THERE, I SAID IT

The more you got, the more you got to lose
From the top of your head down to the bottom of your shoes
The things you love. The things you abuse
It’s enough to give a white boy the blues
I said it. There, I said it
It might not be important but it’s the news
Somebody said it.

You buy it here. You rent it there
From the polish on your toes to the gel in your hair
The man at the bank. The cop at the door
Might as well admit it doesn’t matter any more
I said it. There, I said it.
It might not be important but it’s the news.
Somebody said it.

I look to the right. I look to the left.
Is everybody blind? Is everybody deaf?
I wake up. I look around
We got a three-ring circus in town
They say it’s the truth. It might be a lie
Ain’t gonna buy no pie in the sky
Playing tag with another false flag
Entertaining the folks with ho ho hoax

The rain will fall. Will fall on our head.
The streets will flow with the blood of the dead
I’m a gettin’ Armageddon,
Where to get a drink when you’re pissing in the sink
Armageddon

The clock is ticking and we’re all out a time
Ya say ya got, ya got a mountain to climb
You got a lover and a promise to keep
Hang on tight, it’s gonna be a long sleep
I said it. There, I said it.
If it’s so important why isn’t it news.
I said it.

The rain will fall. Will fall on our head.
The streets will flow with the blood of the dead
I’m a gettin’ Armageddon,
Where to get a drink when you’re pissing in the sink
Armageddon
