Tribes - 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 anything Shut 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 me We're drinking holy water Sleep with your sons and daughters Dance in the english rain And it won't be the same No rest for the wicked No peace for the crooked Yeah Yeah Yeah, nothing left for me Took 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 you Woke up and you were standing there Cut off jeans and bright blonde hair Something about you made them stare Like you were someone new We're drinking holy water Sleep with your sons and daughters Dance in the english rain And it won't be the same No rest for the wicked No peace for the crooked Yeah Yeah Yeah, nothing left for me We're drinking holy water Sleep with your sons and daughters Dance in the english rain And it won't be the same No rest for the wicked No peace for the crooked Yeah Yeah Yeah, nothing left for me
