I never knew you were so close to the edge.
I saw you standing up on top of that ledge.
You never told me that the damage was done.
How could I know I'm not the only one?

I'm gonna rectify you.
I'm gonna rectify you.

I always said you were too close to yourself.
You never took the time for no one else.
I told you that you would be sorry one day.
But all you did was let the shadows play.

I'm gonna rectify you.
I'm gonna rectify you.

I've seen your kind too many times before.
Now Evil Joe is knockin' on your door.
But one day soon you'll find it's all too late.
And what you had's all turned to bitter hate.

I wasn't born in Chigaco,
But I can play the blues.
I wasn't part of no union,
But I paid my dues.

But you got into my blood.

Too much information

Can't make no sense,
Seems like there's no place to hide.

Leavin' on that mornin' train.

Ain't got no brains,
Ain't got no looks.
Surround yourself with a bunch of crooks.
Everyone is watchin',
See what trick you'll pull this time.
That's right.

You ain't got no sense
Of what's goin' on.
You ain't got no answers,
Except what's wrong.
Get yourself elected
Doin' every trick in the book.
No shit.

Who ever said you had to win your votes?

To tell you that you're goin' down.
Yeah, the world keep on turnin' round,
To tell you that you're goin' down, down, down, down, down.

You wonder why
So many hate.
You never listen,
But you better anticipate.
You might have won the battle,
But the war is far from over yet.
That's right.

So in the meantime
Just do your best.
Goin' 'round the world
Clearin' up your daddy's mess.
But you ain't foolin' no one,
Except the folks in your back yard.
Better believe it.

Who ever told you you could be the king?
Who ever said that you knew anythin'?
What makes you think that you have got the right
To turn the rainbows into black and white?

But the world keep on turnin' round,
Takes more than you to bring it down.

Gonna put some distance
Between me and the bad times.
There'll be no resistance,
Say goodbye to the sad times.

Who knows what tomorrow will bring?
Who knows what's around every corner?
Who knows what tomorrow will bring?

Gonna find the reason
To move on from the sad times.
Gonna come a season,
Bring an end to the bad times.

Who knows what tomorrow will bring?
Who knows what's around every corner?
Who knows what tomorrow will bring?

Maybe the dreams of yesterday,
The broken dreams of yesterday.

Who knows what tomorrow will bring?
Who knows what's around every corner?
Who knows what tomorrow will bring?

Maybe the dreams of yesterday,
The broken dreams of yesterday.
Maybe the dreams of yesterday.
