Chris Shaw - The One Who Got Us Out lyrics

I know I like doing a lot of talking Time goes on, I'm talking still While soldier girls are dodging grenades and rockets Moms and dads are paying the bill And they say, it's the only way Ooh, it's the only way And they play like it's a game Ooh, it's like it's a game Sometimes something about my being on the sidelines doesn't jibe And I know why the millions of working people They would fight if they had time And they say, it's the only way Ooh, it's the only way And they play like it's a game Ooh, it's like it's a game And what can you say to take that weight away? I look into the endless bottom And all I want is what should be I'm damned ashamed to feel this rotten Can we reclaim what's been forgotten? The state of the State don't let me feel that safe I want to take it to the tired and affronted And all they want is one who'll lead But I'll put it to you plain and bluntly: I'm worried for my tired country That look on your face, don't let it go to waste Take it to the floor of Congress Look into the Core of Rotten Turn into The One Who Got Us Out
