Paul Janz - Every Little Tear Lyrics
We've been watchin' the signsWe've been readin' the newsAnd now we're starin' amazed atyour shame-faced bluseWe shoulda guessed itI guess we shoulda guessed itYou've been walkin' the lineLike a bad man's dreamNever pay who you layNever say what you meanYou should get arrestedGive us something to trust inWe've been wastin' our time on youAll we want is a fighting chance and you give usHandstand weekends, peaches in the darknessCool hand dealin', leeches lookin' harmlessYou should get arrested(chorus)Has anybody seen the breakdown comin'We're being guided by a ship of foolsOn every street in every townThere's a hundred voices cryin'For anybody standin' up for somethin'You better hold on to your alibisCause life is a ***** when a fool gets richHe can lie to survive and the young and aliveGet arrestedYou got legacies, lawyers, abandoned grinsYou're a criminal case with original sinThat we never shoulda messed withWe got mamas and kids standin' in lineFor a couple of bucks, a couple of dimesYou should get arrestedIs this a system of justiceWe've been wastin' our wealth on youAll we wanted was a fighting chanceand you give usJive in the boardroom, squeals in the bedroomRed tape, files, bureaucracy in full bloomYou should get arrestedchorus
