Cheap Suits

Cheap Suits - Fatty's Lament lyrics

Verse

I woke up this morning

On the wrong side of the floor

And I looked out my window

And saw a day that looked exactly like the one before

And I did not know

I did not know

What all of the fighting was for

And I did not know

I did not know

Would you tell me?

Verse

I see the different races, I see the different faces

of all the people I've seen before

I stare at my shoes like everybody else

refusing to say hello.

And I did not know

I did not know

What all of the silence was for

And I did not know

I did not know

Would you tell me?

Chorus

And I say don't you think that heart will be fine

And I say don't you think that heart will be fine

You ……..

You………

I wont live that way

Verse

I woke up the next morning

on the other side of the floor

And I decided I wasn't going to deal

with racism anymore

And I did not know

I did not know

What all of the anger was for

And I did not know

I did not know

Would you tell me?

I see the different races,

I see the different faces

Of all the people I've seen before

I stare at my shoes like everybody else

Refusing to say hello.

And I did not know

I did not know

What all of the ignorance was for

And I did not know

I did not know

Would you tell me?

Chorus

Bridge

And I walked along these city streets

so many times before and I wanted to tell you something,

tell you something

i didn't and I want to be free

i said i said, why can't you hear me

I said I said

Why can't you hear me?

And I say don't you think that heart will be fine

And I say don't you think that heart will be fine

You ……..

U………n-i-t-y

I wont live that way
