Sonic Boom Six - How I Wish I Could Smile lyrics

I heard a funny thing today What a way The little things that people say Maybe you've heard this one before Well I'm sure You've probably heard this once or more Well I was sat inside a taxi ride just chatting as you do Driver he turns around to me Fancy free And tells the one about the black man and the tree One to another such a harmless joke Just sticks and stones One to another now We got a line to draw In this everyday war I never asked so what's he telling me for, oh I Feel like it's best to ignore Just want to look at the floor Woah Who's that knocking at the door? This is Paul He's been redundant since April He saw a different coloured skin Replace him While getting paid much less and all And now he hates them all he's Poison minded No punchline No laughter here at all One to another now We got a line to draw in this everyday war I never asked so what's he telling me for, oh I Feel like it's best to ignore Just want to look at the floor Woah Now we got a line to draw in this everyday war He's telling me I guess he's told it once before, am I Content with turning the cheek Or do I stand up and speak? Woah One to another Its just sticks and stones Just break my bones One to another now We got a line to draw in this everyday war I never asked so what's he telling me for, Oh I Feel like it's best to ignore Just want to look at the floor Woah Now we got a line to draw In this everyday war He's telling me i guess he's told it once before, am I Content with turning the cheek Or do I stand up and speak? Woah If we're gonna sit endure Then we're making it more We're in the problem if we won't be like a cure, until These attitudes are no more Well everyday there is war Me say war How I wish I could smile Let it go once a while Give an inch take a mile And he'll be telling it again
