Bad Religion - Too Much To Ask lyrics

A refreshing plunge

a drink of platable water

a deep inspiration

on a warm summer day

a safe stroll in the middle

of the road community

a neighbor who in times of

need will not turn away

I ain't no politician, I am a citizen

And I wonder if I'm living too far out of bounds

community protection, rehibilitation

police that serve without legitimate right to maim

global aareness, ecological guilt

cultural and environmental awakening

I ain't no optimist I try to be a realist

and I think that we are living too far out of bounds

is it too much to ask?

Could it be the world is shrinking?

I can see the walls closing in

no one can take much for granted anymore

remote control three cars for every family

corruption at the expense of the simple majority

a violent crash a plunder of the third world

any wretched ploy that bolsters our economy

I ain't no blind supporter, I'm a conscious citizen

and I know that we are living too far out of bounds

is it too much to ask?

can we keep the earth from sinking?

I can see the walls closing in

No one can take much for granted anymore

you better not take it for granted anymore

I'm not taking nothing for granted anymore...
