The Damned - W lyrics

You could spend your time

In a darkened room

Just to gather folks opinions

Can you stand the heat?

Can you wrong the rights

And I love you, thanks a million

And if there's a god

Let him strike you down

Knowing that you can't deliver

But you held me up

And you hung me out

And we're waiting still for you to bring

Light to a darkened room

But I know you will

It'll make my day

When I see your face

On a dollar bill

And they counted you out

Then they counted you in

And they're counting still

And for all the lies you're about to tell

May the lord make us

Truely thankfull

In a two horse race

If you bet each way

Could you maybe stay the distance

And if I should hide

From your puppeteers

Will they make me look ridiculous

Did you like the game

Can you take the blame

After all the dust has settled

Did you ever hope

For a hopeless world

Hungry for the time that you'd bring a

Light to a darkened room

But I know you will

It'll make my day

When I see your face

On a dollar bill

And they counted you out

Then they counted you in

And they're counting still

And for all the lies you're about to tell

May the lord make us

Truely thankfull

We could talk all night

Never touch the side

But I don't mean to demean you

Ever felt the cold

When you saw the light

Did the mirror show that dream of you

All the endless miles

And the babies smiles

While the mothers pledge allegiance

To uphold the wrong

To opress the right

Ready to sign up when you bring the

Light to a darkened room

But I know you will

It'll make my day

When I see your face

On a dollar bill

They counted you out

Then they counted you in

And they're counting still

And for all the lies you're about to tell

May the lord make us

Truely thankfull
