Sons And Daughters Lyrics

Heard the story of the world last night
Where the kids don't read, and the kids don't write
Where the girls don't sing, and the boys don't fight
And no-one believes anythingShut my eyes and I took myself there
Threw off my shoes, felt the wind in my hair
Put down my drink, and pulled up a chair
Felt the sun go down on meWe're drinking holy water
Sleep with your sons and daughters
Dance in the english rain
And it won't be the sameNo rest for the wicked
No peace for the crooked
Yeah Yeah Yeah, nothing left for meTook a chance and joined the circus game
And I left town with all the friends that I made
You always said it would be the same
And I came back for youWoke up and you were standing there
Cut off jeans and bright blonde hair
Something about you made them stare
Like you were someone newWe're drinking holy water

Sleep with your sons and daughters
Dance in the english rain
And it won't be the sameNo rest for the wicked
No peace for the crooked
Yeah Yeah Yeah, nothing left for meWe're drinking holy water
Sleep with your sons and daughters
Dance in the english rain
And it won't be the sameNo rest for the wicked
No peace for the crooked
Yeah Yeah Yeah, nothing left for me
