Bacon and Eggs
I was walking down Main Street just the other day.
This old man with his hand out, he told me to pay.
Said he was the taxman, said he was the priest.
Said, “You need nothing you want and you want nothing you need.”
Could you hold the fort for me my lonely friend?
Keep a light on inside so I’ll find my way back home.
It was two years ago, it was two years too soon,
When I had a little drink with the man in the moon.
You know he said that he was the American Dream.
I just smiled, shook his hand said, “I see what you mean.”
Could you hold the fort for me my lonely friend?
Keep a light on inside so I’ll find my way back home.
Don’t you lie to me!
Don’t you fuck with me!
I know you make all the rules.
I know you think I’m the fool.
But that won’t always be.
Cause times they change you see.
I’d still like to believe,
In a world without greed.
Every man, woman, and child,
What’s gonna really drive them wild,
Is not all the dreams you steal,
But that none of it was real.
