Who Will Save Your Soul
(Indisponível)
jewel:
people living their lives for you on tv
they say they're better than you, and you agree
she says hold my calls for me and those cold repore says
come here boy, there'snothin for free
another burger, another hot dog, some fries
you wish in the well, hope your health don't go to hell, well
another doctor's bill, a lawyer's bill
another cute cheap thrill
you know you love him if you put in your will but
who will save your souls when it comes to the babies now
who will save your souls after all those lies you told
who will save your souls if you won't save your own
we try to hustle them, try to bustle them, try to cuss them
and the cops want someone to bust down on orleans avenue, oh
another day, another dollar, another war, another tower
Went up where the homeless had their homes
so we pray to as many different gods as there are flowers
and we call religion our friend
we're so worried about saving our souls
afraid that god will take his toll
that we forget to begin but
Who will save your souls when it comes to the babies now
who will save your souls after all those lies you told
and who will save your souls if you won't save your own
jason:
now i'm relaxing this third verse without even rehearsin
lacin up my converse and conjugatin all the verbs
it's always been my thing you know for better or worse
to be a singer who blows rings around this universe
now, now speakin on the topic of a curbside prophet
everybody come to me they ask me how they can unlock it
i say, shit, if this is all there is
it's justa fillin in the blanks like mad-libs
who will, oh, who will save your soul
who will save your soul if you can't save your own
jewel:
some are walking, some are talking, some are stalking their kill
you got social security, but that don't pay bills
there's addictions to feed, there's mouths to pay
so you bargain with the devil, say you're ok today say
that you love them, take their money and run
it's been swell, sweetheart, but it was just one of those things
those strings, those flings, those strings, those flings...
you gotta get out on the street go right now go out and bust all of your butts
sho will save you souls when it comes to the babies now
who will save you souls after all those lies that you told, boy
who will save your soul if you won't save you own
