歌曲歌詞
Don't want to work in a building downtown
No I don't want to work in a building downtown
I don't know what I'm going to do
Because the planes keep crashing always two by two
Don't want to work in a building downtown
No I don't want to see it when the planes hit the ground
Don't want to work in a building downtown
Don't want to work in a building downtown
Parking the cars in the underground
The voices when they scream well they make no sound
Want to see the cities rust
And the troublemakers riding on the back of the bus
Dear God I'm a good Christian man
I'm your boy I know you understand
That you got to work hard and you got to get paid
The girl's thirteen but she don't act her age
She can sing like a bird in cage
Oh Lord if you could see her when she's up on that stage
You know that I'm a God-fearing man
You know that I'm a God-fearing man
I just got to know if it's part of your plan
To see my darling stand by your right hand
I know that you'll do what's right Lord
For they are the lanterns and you are the light
Now I'm overcome
By the light of day
My lips are near
But my heart is far away
Tell me what to say
I'll be your mouthpiece
Into the light of a bridge that burns
As I drive through the city with the money that I earn
To the dark of a starless sky
I won't stare into nothing and I'm asking you why
Lord let me make her a star
So the world can see who you really are
Little girl you're old enough to understand
You'll always be a stranger in a strange strange land
Men are going to come while you're fast asleep
So you better just stay close and hold onto me
If mama's mockingbird don't sing well
Then daddy won't buy her no diamond ring
Dear God would you send me a child
Oh God would you send me a child
Because I want to put it up on the TV screen
So the world can see what your true word means
Lord won't you send me a sign
Because I just got to know if I'm wasting my time
Now I'm overcome
By the light of day
My lips are near
But my heart is far away
But now the war is won
How come nothing tastes good
Oh you're such a sensitive child
You know you're such a sensitive child
I know you're tired but it's all right
I just needed you to sing for me tonight
You're going to have your day in the sun
You know God loves the sensitive ones
Oh my little bird in a cage
Oh my little bird in a cage
I need you to get up for me up on that stage
Show all the men that you're old for your age
