Julie's been working for the Drug Squad 'Cause Julie's been working for the Drug Squad Oh oh, alive Nineteen for you And you can get out in twenty-five It's Lucy in the sky and all kinds of apple pie She giggle at the screen 'cause it looks so green

Let me be your friend Baby, let me in 'Cause I got you, you, oh You, I got you, I got you We can get high, oh, nah-nah-nah We can get low, oh, nah-nah-nah Tell you no lies, oh, nah-nah-nah We can get lost, oh, nah-nah-nah Take it all off, oh, nah-nah-nah

And the record won't stop skipping And the lies just won't stop slipping And besides my reputation's on the line We can fake it for the airwaves Force our smiles, baby, half dead From comparing myself to everyone else around me Everyone else around me

Mother of us all Place of our birth We all are witness To the rape of the world How can we stand aside And watch the rape of the wold This the beginning of the end This the most heinous of crimes This the deadliest of sins

All your lies You'd lose a heart in your hand And I can't believe you'd make me work for it Now I understand Why I run as fast as I can Why do I breathe With what's beating in my chest? You'd think I'd learn better now 'Cause I can't get any rest

Come past the lies We cannot be so blind Hear their cries The wait 'til daylight dies No more broken promises Slowly we watch the degradation of the civilization The rise and fall of all we are Stands here before us

I was down but now I can see The pain, the hurt, the misery Oh Lord, it's been a long time The death, the lies, in lies the truth All that it is, what was, ain't true Doing my best I'll try and get it next time This cross you bare I've come to carry for

They're gonna clean up your looks With all the lies in the books To make a citizen out of you Because they sleep with a gun And keep an eye on you, son So they can watch all the things you do Because the drugs never work They're gonna give you a smirk

It's only lies that I'm living It's only tears that I'm crying It's only you that I'm losing Guess I'm doing fine There's a blue bird at my window I can't hear the songs he sings All the jewels in heaven They don't look the same to me I just wade the

Oh don't leave me on my own Left me standing all alone Cut me down to size so I can fit inside Lies that will divide us both in time Don't leave me on my own I'm so tired of being alone These penitent walls are all I've known Songbird calling across the
