"us defines the means" lyrics

You could call it a draw, man
And let bygones be bye gone
But you went and doused that dreaded straw man in kerosene
I hate to fight fire with fire but
You stand there with match book in hand
It must've been words that broke your back
And I still have a spine if you know what I mean

We'll justify the means
The masses will agree
To turn a blind eye
Not the other cheek

We'll justify the means
The masses will agree
To turn a blind eye
Not the other cheek

Whatever it takes
For another pair of feet on Broadway

Life could be shorter than you think
Could take a minute to get there
Maybe a moment spared to think
Might be worth looking from
Over here or over there

We'll justify the means
The masses will agree
To turn a blind eye
Not the other cheek

We'll justify the means
The masses will agree
To turn a blind eye
Not the other cheek

Whatever it takes
For another pair of feet on Broadway
Whatever it takes
For another pair of feet on Broadway

New year's flares we send up
Blend into a sky with fireworks
Situation's dire
What's your resolution this

New year's flares we send up
Blend into a sky with fireworks
Situation's dire
What's your resolution this

New year's flares we send up
Blend into a sky with fireworks
Situation's dire
What's your resolution this

New year's flares we send up
Blend into a sky with fireworks
Situation's dire
What's your resolution this new year

We'll justify the means
The masses will agree
To turn a blind eye
Not the other cheek

We'll justify the means
The masses will agree
To turn a blind eye
Not the other cheek

Whatever it takes
For another pair of feet on Broadway
Whatever it takes
For another pair of feet on Broadway
Whatever it takes
For another pair of feet on Broadway

Life could be shorter than you think
