Do The Right Thing

With the morning comes a new day

Nothing seems to change

Everywhere I look I see my brothers still in chains

50 million maggot dinners buried in their graves

I believe in no one now

I believe in no one now


Water into wine I cannot swallow any more

I have seen your golden temple

And the hungry at its door

How invisible it all seems

When there isn’t any more

I believe in no one now

I believe in no one now


Do the right, do the right thing

Do the right, do the right thing


Pour your bloody Mary’

We are down here on our knees

Our high priests speak of freedom, but they all dangle keys

I have stood here and listened to their sermons and their dreams

And I believe in no one now

I believe in no one now


Polish up this madness

Murder me with smiles

Our song has become what our middlemen decide

How invisible it all bleeds when you’re laughing in your highs

I believe in no one now

I believe in no one now


Do the right, do the right thing

Do the right, do the right thing


It hurts doesn’t it?

Your whole damn world falling out from under you

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water

Your bag of silly tricks, still dragging you down, drowning you

One more, green bottle

It won’t hurt for too long more, I promise you

Say hello to promise

No miracles, no trigger men, no codswallop

No charlatans

My words will turn your heart into a bright day tomorrow if you’ll let them

Bet your hand on it my friends

Revolution
