Rapids
Lyricist:Robert Ian Mcnabb
Vagrant suspicious and quite out of breath Stumbles into a town where the people wear frowns Picks up a paper, the pages are blank They say, 'No news today, no more writers around'
What price hope over adversity Cause to applaud this perversity I'm still deaf from the hydroplanes Blessed with a cynical gaze
No words in our own defense Independence our recompense Fate casting a finer line To pity or to pay
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com These rapids we're rolling on Seem calm when they're good and gone Love, as good as the house it warms A million miles between us Still we're heading the same way
I sing this song with my tongue in my cheek For the jilted, the jaundiced, the angry young men Who somehow believe that the status quo changes With juvenile slogans in down market rags
What price hope over adversity Cause to applaud this perversity I'm still deaf from the hydroplanes Blessed with a cynical gaze
