0:01One two three
0:25I see fingers hands and shades of faces
0:32Reachin' up and not quite touchin' the promised land
0:38I hear pleas and prayers and a desperate whisper saying
0:45Oh lord please give us a helpin' hand
0:50Yeah yeah
1:05Way down in the background background
1:09I can see frustrated souls of cities burning
1:12And all across the water baby
1:15I see weapons barkin' out the sting of death
1:19And up in the clouds
1:20I can imagine UFO's jumpin' themselves
1:23Laughin' they sayin'
1:26Those people so uptight
1:28They sure know how to make a mess
2:34Back in the saloon my tears mix
2:36And mildew with my drink
2:40I can't really tell my feet
2:42From the sawdust on the floor
2:47But as far as I know
2:49They may even try to wrap me up
2:51In cellophane and sell me
2:54Brother sell me and don't worry about looking at the score
2:59Yeah yeah yeah
One two three I see fingers hands and shades of faces Reachin' up and not quite touchin' the promised land I hear pleas and prayers and a desperate whisper saying Oh lord please give us a helpin' hand Yeah yeah Way down in the background background I can see frustrated souls of cities burning And all across the water baby I see weapons barkin' out the sting of death And up in the clouds I can imagine UFO's jumpin' themselves Laughin' they sayin' Those people so uptight They sure know how to make a mess Back in the saloon my tears mix And mildew with my drink I can't really tell my feet From the sawdust on the floor But as far as I know They may even try to wrap me up In cellophane and sell me Brother sell me and don't worry about looking at the score Yeah yeah yeah
