ride blue divide
Singer:sniff 'n' the tears
besieged within your frightened city
the plans are laid but can they be changed
there's a man going round taking names again
tells tales of fresh disaster
and who'd care to say at the end of the day
that they'd live happy ever after
don't put no plans in the hands of the man
boy cupid the smiler's gun
fired her heart but it couldn't be won
they had plans that didn't agree
so they take their chances on a climbing tree
climbing tree climbing tree
the gilded cage of possibility
who could say it wouldn't be fun
you climb to the top take the money and run
don't put no plans in the hands of the man
those doggies in their mangers
the old men know which way they think it should go
and how they'd like to rearrange us
so strike out the fearless hunter
her heart will never waver
he spread his cloak and wound up broke
don't put no plans in the hands of the man
