brother where you bound
Singer:supertramp
there's a red cloud hanging over us
and it's so big and it's gonna burst
all you people with your heads in the ground
and they're no good and they're everywhere
try to hear you but you don't make a sound
and you don't know what they're gonna do
and you don't know how they feel
and you don't know what they're tellin' you
is it a lie or is it real
and the next thing that you know is
that they walk out on the deal
and the message that they're giving you
if you don't quite see their point of view
then they treat you like a spy
and the phone rings and you disappear
in the middle of the night
can't you see they're on the move
don't know what you're trying to prove
but you sit there oh so cool
like they never broke no rules
and the cat flies and the crow walks
and the ghost dies and the sow talks
and they tell us that they'll be good as gold
b'lieve nothing that you're told
make a move in one direction
try to make some compromise
but they greet you with rejection
makin' out you're tellin' lies
then they turn around and tell you
better get down from the sky
for the sake of all that's holy
listen good to what i say
i can feel them all around me
they could be here any day
but you act like you don't know me
why d' you look at me that way
if there's one thing that is clear
we gotta get away from here
we've gotta leave this place
it's just a hopeless case
ain't no one else to blame
we're gonna lose this game
hey brother get off my back
they got a hatred deep down inside
ain't gonna let them take me alive
ain't gonna let them walk over me
boy you ain't got no heart and soul
and your mind is weak and your blood's runnin' cold
if you get caught you better know
ain't no place safe for us to stay
