Sing

Do we wanna watch it all fall apart?

Everytime I walk I watch

I look, I notice, I observe, I read the signs

And the signs are pointing in the wrong direction

The signs are not naming the streets or leading you to the highway

The signs are naming names

Tombstones to mark the dead of children not even born

And I don't mean abortion, I mean what is to come

The signs are telling me to turn back around

The signs are telling me to research my past

The signs are telling me to learn from my mistakes

The signs are asking me questions

Do you wanna watch it all fall apart?

Do you have any control?

Is there anything that you can do?

Time is not a nice person, I know because the signs said it

Time can be generous but ultimately time is indifferent

Time does not give two damns or a fuck, so what will you do?

What will we do?

So I'm in the middle of the street talking to the signs

And people are looking at me

Pointing and laughing like this mother fuckers crazy

But do they not see the signs?

Do you not see the signs?

If there is one thing in this world that you can depend on

And you can bet your last dollar on is the ignorance of the american people

And still I have faith

And still I read the signs

And they are indeed there

Some of us are lost and will not find our way no matter what the signs say

Some of us do not see the signs because we are too busy shopping

Some of us do not see the signs because we can't help but stop

And look at the accidents, and stare

We are in a daze

We are amazed by the worlds displays

Some of us do not see the signs because

We are giving spare change to the homeless

We are getting gas, we are volunteering for duty

And we are watching television

We are driving around in circles on spinners,and we are working 8 to 6

We are on our way to the club, we are high, we are drunk, and we are sober

And we do not see the signs

We are listening to a moron babble

We are listening to tounges that lie

We give them a ear, we give them a hand, we give them both eyes

So we cannot see the signs

Slow! There are children playing in the streets and they cannot read the signs

They are only children

Stop! Stop!

I fear there is no u-turn, and that this road that ends

Because we cannot read the signs

Do you not see the signs?

We must read the signs

And we must turn around, we must turn around

We gotta turn this shit around

And we gotta read the signs

We must read the signs, we must read the signs, we must read the signs

We gotta read the signs, we gotta turn this shit around

We must turn this shit around

We gotta turn this shit around

We gotta read the signs
