lyrics

IDIOT CHILD

See a new day rising
A sight unforeseen
Pure from the new day fear
Yeah, you asked for handshakes
No greenbacks will do
Oh Lord don’t you stop me here.

And I’m so fucking scared.
Scared of myself
Scared that I’ll look the other way.
And if I give a damn
I can’t go home again.
But tonight I know I lay awake.

ch. Pick up and kiss the idiot child.

I felt the ground swell and twist beneath my feet
Ain’t no justice for the hands on the street.
And eyes will remind you and tap on my soul.
Tables turn and it’s my turn to lie.

ch. Pick up and kiss the idiot child

One day the rain will sweep it all away
And it will punch the night right through to day
And one day the rain will sweep it all away.
Remind you that the dreamland will dirty soon

Pick up and kiss the idiot child
Pick up and kiss the idiot child.
