Daniel Lanois - A Man Needs to be Told lyrics

[Verse 1] A man needs to be told There is a world going on There is a world going on There's a world going on A man needs to be told To look into the night He will get lost in the day He will get lost in the night A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told [Bridge] [Verse 2] A young boy once told me I'll be an old man and I'm only fifteen It wasn't part of the plan It wasn't part of the dream Ever wonder how much the man who wrote White Christmas made? How evolution began The revolution was fake A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told [Bridge] [Pedal steel solo: Daniel Lanois] [Verse 3] A man needs to be told There is a war going on There is a war going on There is a war going on A man needs to be told There is a truth in his eye There is a rest in the dawn There is a point to his life A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told A man needs to be told [Bridge to fade]
