She had a bad childhood when she was very young
So don't judge her too badly
She had a schizophrenic mother who worked in the gutter
And would have sold herself to the devil, gladly
What a sad environment
A bug ridden tenement
And when they couldn't pay the rent
It was 'cause her father was out
Getting liquored
Oh, the stone's been cast
And blood's thicker than water
And the sins of the family fall on the daughter
Yeah the sins of the family fall on the daughter
At the age of 16 she had been around more
Than any girl over 30
And the high I.Q's who condemned her
Knew she's a product of poor heredity
It's a fictitious fact when you fall on your back
You can backtrack failure with inspection, without exemption
All the sins of the family fall on the daughter
Yeah the sins of the family fall on the daughter
Oh, the devil is open to all of us
Heaven selects a precious few
And it takes some inside pull to get Gabriel
To make an angel of you
One can't live a lie then expect to die
With a soul in paradise
You know you gotta pay the price
Like you oughtta
Blood's thicker than water
And the sins of the family fall on the daughter

Take your first look around
And see the world you're coming into
Ah, have a good cry
I sympathize with you
Ah, forever gone is your serenity
For the fleeing fawn
There's no sacred tree
They'll try to make
Hypocrisy of your heredity
So choose your views most carefully
The future's hope is on
What you turn out to be
[CHORUS]
Child of our times
Child of our times
Product of our society
What will you grow up to respect
Tell me what will you
Grow up to protect
In your burning, turning mind
You are your own worst enemy
Every minute you're alive
You're that much closer to death
So try to make the most of
Each precious breath
Ah, don't wave banners
You don't believe parasite
You'll have to discover
Your own wrong and right
Just color your perspectives
Black and white
They'll label you weird
But that's all right
They'll thank you in the end
After they've seen the light
[repeat CHORUS]
Ah, the heroes of the past
Were all good guys
But the leaders of the next war
No one will memorize
Only the orphan child
Will sound the cries
Of a mistake that could
Never be rectified
I'm telling you now
'Cause you can stop it if you try
[repeat CHORUS]

All the leaves are brown and the sky is grey
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
I'd be be safe and warm if I was in L.A.
California dreaming on such a winter's day
Stopped into a church I passes a long the way
Oh I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray
You know the preacher likes the cold,
he knows I'm gonna stay
California dreaming on such a winter's day
All the leaves are brown and the sky is grey
I've been for a walk on a winter's day
If I didn't tell her I could leave today
California dreaming

You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last.
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast.
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun,
Crying like a fire in the sun.
Look out the saints are comin' through
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.
Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
The empty-handed painter from your street
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets.
This sky, too, is folding under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home.
Your empty-handed armies, they are going home.
Your lover who just walked out the door
Has taken all his blankets from the floor.
The carpet, too, is moving under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.
Leave your stepping stones behind, there's something that calls for you.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
Strike another match, go start anew

Now where you go again, your full learn around again yeah
Must think that this boy, boy is blind.
I got news for you Babe, this time were really blue Babe.
Ain't no way I'm gonna change my mind
You played around before so, what's one guy or more boy
I'm digging all I'm gonna stand
I'm sick and tired of your climbin' and all your alibin'
They ain't no way I'm gonna change my mind
I ain't no way, I'm gonna change my mind
And maybe you believe me
Will I've lived you for behind
I've given you your chances, I've listened to your answers,
I swear, I've been more than kind
So don't start your kissin' up, Babe, this time your outer love babe
Ain't no way I'm gonna change my mind
Don't get down on your knees and don't buzzer with your teeth and
This time I swear, that I in band
Mmh maybe some of the fool will find you, just close the door behind you
Ain't no way I'm gonna change my mind
I ain't no way, I'm gonna change my mind
And maybe you believe me
Will I've lived you for behind
I ain't no way, I'm gonna change my mind

When I woke up this morning
And you were on my mind.
You were on my mind
I got troubles, woe-woe
I got worries, woe-woe
I got wounds to bind.
So I went to the corner
Just to ease my pain
I said, just to ease my pain.
I got troubles, woe-woe
I got worries, woe-woe
I came home again.
When I woke up this morning
And you were on my mind.
And you were on my mind.
I got troubles, woe-woe
I got worries, woe-woe
I got wounds to bind.
But I gotta feelin` yeah
Down in my shoes
I said, way down in my shoes.
I got a rainbow, woe-woe
I gotta move on, woe-woe
I gotta walk away my blues.
When I woke up this morning
And you were on my mind
I said, you were on my mind.
Well I got troubles, woe-woe
I got worries, woe-woe

Why do I deny all that’s accepted true?
Why can’t I live my life like I’m expected to?
Get a college degree, buy colour TV?
Oh what’s exactly the mater with me?
I believe no one’s conclusions, I think for myself.
I take nothing for granted, my brain aint on the shelf.
I’ve got my views though I’m missed and confused.
Oh what’s exactly the matter with me?
Why can’t I settle down in one little place?
Find me a girl and get out of this race?
But, my boots start itching, my eyes start looking.
Oh what’s exactly the matter with me?
Why can’t I march when the cause is just?
Stamp out oppression, greed and lust?
Oh, inferiority, insecurity.
Yeah, that’s exactly the matter with me.
Why do I “yes” people that I despise?
Why can’t I say “I hate you” right to your eyes?
Oh, Inferiority in hostility.
Yeah, that’s exactly the matter with me.

Oh my granddaddy and me,
We sail on the sloop John B,
Around Nassau town we did roam, mmhhh,
We got into a fight. Ah, we want drinking all night
Yeah now I feel so break up, I wanna go home
Come on now we run up the John B's sail
We gonna see how the mainsail sets.
We got a cent for the captain ashore, oh let me go home.
I wanna go home.
Yeah let me go home.
Don?t you know, I feel so break up, I just wanna go home.
Yeah the first mate, he got drunk.
And he broke in the captain's trunk.
The constable had to come and take him away,
Ahh Sheriff John Stone
Can?t you leave him alone?
Oh no, I feel so break up, I just wanna go home.
Come on let?s all singing now
Run up the John B's sail
We gonna see how the mainsail sets.
We got a cent for the captain ashore, oh let me go home.
I wanna go home.
Yeah let me go home.
Yeah now, I feel so break up, I just wanna go home.
And then the cookie, he took the fits
he ate at all of my grits
And then the first make he got drunk drink all my corn.
Sheriff John Stone why don?t you leave him alone
Come on now, I feel so break up, I just wanna go home.
Run it up now
We run up the John B's sail
We gonna see how the mainsail sets.
We got a cent for the captain ashore, let me go home.
I wanna go home.
Yeah let me go home.
Don?t you know, I feel so break up, I just wanna go home.
Run it up again
Run up the John B's sail
And see how the mainsail sets.

She's got everything she needs, she's an artist, she don't look back
She's got everything she needs, she's an artist, she don't look back
She takes the darkness out of night time, and paints the daytime black.
Hmm. She never stumbles, she's got no place to fall
Yeah, She never stumbles, she's got no place to fall.
Ah, She's nobody's child, the law can't touch her at all.
You will start out standing, proud to steal her anything she sees
You will start out standing, proud to steal her anything she sees
But you'll wind up peekin' through a keyhole down upon your knees.
So bow down to her on Sunday, salute her when her birthday comes
Ah,bow down to her on Sunday, salute her when her birthday comes
Hmm, for Halloween give her a trumpet and for Christmas buy her a drum.
She's got everything she needs, she's an artist, she don't look back
She's got everything she needs, she's an artist, she don't look back

Come you masters of war
You that build all the guns
You that build the death planes
You that build all the bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks.
You that never done nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my world
Like it's your little toy
You put a gun in my hand
And you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run farther
When the fast bullets fly.
Like Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see through your eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the water
That runs down my drain.
You fasten all the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you set back and watch
When the death count gets higher
You hide in your mansion'
As young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies
And is buried in the mud.
You've thrown the worst fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children
Into the world
For threatening my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood
That runs in your veins.
How much do I know
To talk out of turn
You might say that I'm young
You might say I'm unlearned
But there's one thing I know
Though I'm younger than you
That even Jesus would never
Forgive what you do.
Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul.
And I hope that you die
And your death'll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand over your grave

The eastern world it is explodin', violence flarin', bullets loadin'
You're old enough to kill but not for votin'
You don't believe in war, what's that gun you're totin'
And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin'
But you tell me over and over and over again my friend
Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
Don't you understand, what I'm trying to say?
Can't you see the fear that I'm feeling today?
If the button is pushed, there's no running away
There'll be none to save with the world in a grave
Take a look around you, boy, it's bound to scare you, boy
But you tell me over and over and over again my friend
Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
Yeah, my blood's so mad, feels like coagulatin'
I'm sittin' here just contemplatin'
I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation
Handful of Senators don't pass legislation
And marches alone can't bring integration
When human respect is disintegratin'
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'
And you tell me over and over and over again my friend
Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
Think of all the hate there is in Red China
Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama
Ah, you may leave here for four days in space
But when you return it's the same old place
The poundin' of the drums, the pride and disgrace
You can bury your dead but don't leave a trace
Hate your next door neighbor but don't forget to say grace
And you tell me over and over and over and over again my friend
