It's a long way to the promised land |
|
So you'd better well know your way |
|
There's a ship on the ocean and an albatross |
|
Who is trying to lead you astray |
|
Leaders, politicians and power whores |
|
Are in line to receive your choice |
|
You can bet your ass if you give it to them |
|
They will gladly take your voice |
|
And it's a long way to the promised land |
|
It's a long way to the promised land |
|
It's a long way to the promised land |
|
If we work we might find it here |
|
There's no substitute for enlightenment |
|
There's no reason for bridled fear |
|
When you join the people who've joined the club |
|
You gotta clench and play your hand |
|
'Cause if you fall in line you're gonna fall in time |
|
And you'll never make a stand |
|
And it's a long way to the promised land |
|
It's a long way to the promised land |
|
What are you going to do |
|
When they call for you? |
|
Bend and capitulate |
|
Or keep your head on straight? |
|
Easy answers bought without experience |
|
Gonna lead you to certain doom |
|
Because the truth is just what you make of it |
|
It begins and ends with you |
|
It's a long way to the promised land |
|
It's a long way to the promised land |
|
When you join the people who've joined the club |
|
You gotta clench and play your hand |
|
Because the truth is just what you make of it |
|
It's a long way, get in line |
