"No Way Out" lyrics

"No Way Out"

When I was a kid, everything we did, happened in the neighborhood
Birds would tweet, air smelled sweet, everything was pretty good
But all that changed, the world got strange, it got really weird
Momma gotta a cat, daddy liked that, I just grew a beard

And the poison rain, keeps running down the drain
Ain't no way to win, this game that we're in, is there no way out?

Trouble on the left, trouble on the right, trouble in the middle too
Endless war, revolving door, what are we supposed to do?
I got cool, went to school, studied philosophy
Got no clue, if any of it's true, especially theology

And the poison rain, keeps running down the drain
Ain't no way to win, this game that we're in, is there no way out?

I crawled in bed, about half dead, to watch a little tv
All bad news, gives me the blues, and blows my beauty sleep
So I give in practicin', cook a little bok choy
Go to work, the boss is a jerk, I gotta be a good boy

And the poison rain, keeps running down the drain
Ain't no way to win, this game that were in, is there no way out?

Now and then, I practice in, I cook a little bok choy
