Dancing On The Jetty
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Watch the world argue
Argue with itself
Who's going to teach me
Peace and happiness
We can sit here forever
Just never get old
Listen to the world
Letting gods tie us down
Hit cities sharp knives
The right clothing
Dancing on the jetty
So our feet stay dry
Watch the world argue
Argue with itself
Who's going to teach me
Peace and happiness
Watch the world argue
Argue with itself
Who's going to teach me
Peace and happiness
Blood is upon the steps
Two thousand years ago
Pray like hell every war in fight
Another war in the Holy Land
Shock the world
True story
Snap decisions
In our moment's glory
We're gonna watch them keep it strong
Watch the world argue
Argue with itself
Who's going to teach me
Peace and happiness
Watch the world argue
Argue with itself
Who's going to teach me
Peace and happiness
We're making trouble
We change tracks
We fool the system
Take time to take notice
Hit cities sharp knives
The right clothing
Dancing on the jetty
So our feet stay dry
Watch the world argue
Argue with itself
Who's going to teach me
Peace and happiness
Watch the world argue
Argue with itself
Who's going to teach me
Peace and happiness
