The Cold Light Of Day

Ashbury


I can't wait to turn on my tv
Hey i gotta watch cnn
To catch all the news
See who's doing what to who
What's up what's next and what then
Tell me what's up what's next and what then
I'm keeping an eye on my neighbors
And they got their eyes all on me
A big circle jerk
In a high risk alert
Watching you watching him watching me
Have you heard it's the land of the free

Beware the stranger
Who looks just like you
Saluting the red white & blue
At the bus stop the restaurant or the local cafe
It stands in the cold light of day
And it won't go away

We gotta get back to the normal
Taxation commerce and trade
With an eye on the stocks
Yea-the whole world's in hock
Selling souls for a kingdom of fame
You can always find someone to blame

Beware the stranger
Who looks just like you
Saluting the red white & blue
At the bus stop the restaurant or the local cafe
It stands in the cold light of day
Have we nothing to say
