Call To Arms — текст песни (down by law)

Rejoice in your naivete boy, cause it`s all gone for me
I know we lived on stupid dreams; it was all we had you see
but when the balance totters there`s no time for starry eyes
clear your thoughts to earn the good life and then I`ll call you wise
now in the end I predict that you`ll be just like me
cause only the foolish or the blind don`t want a new t.v.
and you won`t want to haunt the thrift stores when you`re old and gray
you`d better earn a packet now for all those lonely days
I see the fire in your eyes and I wish you all the best
but if you want to stay in my world put all of the that to rest
there it is, I`ve said it, now the rest is up to you
things were great when we were young; now march with me, its through
if you could only see things my way, then you`d know I`m right!
I believe you can hold on and live life in ways you choose
confusion and my desperation are far too dear to lose
if all of this meant nothing then you`ve wasted all that time
but I can`t un-tattoo my life, and that`s the bottom line
I`m not stupid and I know that everyone plays the game
but how far you go on prefab terms is where we`re not the same
don`t want to live my life today for when I`m 65
if we all make it that far, dear god I`ll be surprised
anyway the point is this: I too wish you the best
but when I walk down city streets I don`t feel like the rest
don`t worry; I won`t wave a red flag or march on the city square
somewhere between revolution and you, you`ll find me there
if you could only see things my way, then you`d know I`m right!
