Lyrics

Spirits In The Material World

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.

There is no political solution

To our troubled evolution

Have no faith in constitution

There is no bloody revolution

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

Our so-called leaders speak

With words they try to jail you

They subjugate the meek

But it's the rhetoric of failure

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

Where does the answer lie?

Living from day to day

If it's something we can't buy

There must be another way

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world

We are spirits in the material world
