He left his dreams in the alley
Betrayed by false beliefs
Checks the time on his watch again
This world is spinning into overdrive
History is happening now
Lessons of abject failure
Do the leaders sleep while thousands die
To protect from weapons of imagination
These Joe Citizen blues
Joe Citizen blues
Joe Citizen blues
And the world spins around with head bowed down
At onethousand seventy miles an hour
And the world spins around with head bowed down
At onethousand seventy miles an hour
When opportunity means firing a gun
Looks lot like past pires
The ruling class doesn't fight the wars
With stock options and fortunes to be made
More reason for hope in the future
When this present is almost past
Sweet black crude and Red White and Blue
May the innocent find the answer
To these Joe Citizen blues
Joe Citizen blues
Joe Citizen blues
And the world spins around with head bowed down
At onethousand seventy miles an hour
And the world spins around with head bowed down
At onethousand seventy miles an hour
To these Joe Citizen blues
Joe Citizen blues
Joe Citizen blues
And the world spins around with head bowed down
At onethousand seventy miles an hour
And the world spins around with head bowed down
At onethousand seventy miles an hour
/7sus] /7*] repeated, end on
