Can you spare me a quarter?
Though I have no one to call
I just thought it might save my a** one day
If the sky or the free world were to fall
This is the only thing that I can do
This is the only thing I know how to say
And when everything is gone And the night it seems to grow long
Will you play this record anyway?
There are a million ways to say it
There are a million lies to chose from
So don't look up You might find that your head is stuck
No one's going to bail us out of this one Every time I call your name
Somehow I wish it was the same
For me and you and all the things we do
Not in vain Maybe I could give you a ride
Though I don't really own a car
Well it isn't anything so different
Than living underneath a dying star
Well this is what we all get up for
When the clocks go out of time Cause nothing short of
War and d**h and money
Will ever f**ing change your mind
There are a million ways to die son
And there are a million places to chose from
So don't look up You might find that your head is stuck
No one's going to bail us out of this one Every time I call your name
Somehow I wish it was the same
For me and you and all the things we do
Not in vain Every time I call your name
Somehow I wish it was the same
For me and you and all the things we do
Not in vain And who will k** this native son?
Who will learn from everything we have done?
And who will we get to stand up for tomorrow?
And who will we get to stand up for tomorrow? Native son
Native son
