Wishing Well

Too much power in our hands

Everything we do, we do for trend

And the wicked ways that'll bring us to our end

We sweep under the rug just to come right back up again

Hysteria is commonplace

The whole world is just one click away

Everybody speaks before they think

The media feeds on judgement day

We let our kind rot in the street

Even Uncle Sam won't guarantee that if

You fight you'll have a place to sleep

Don't sound Utopian to me

So, Lord, don't rock the cradle and you better not rock the boat

Any deviance of what's deemed worthy, sure to have us at your throat

Words ain't worth a dime, more like pennies in a well

You better hope and wish til' your last earned cent

Cause copper don't spend in hell

Well, they tried their best to raise us up

To do your part and wait your turn

You reckon schoolhouse rock just didn't work?

Cause I'd love to see it all

Crash and burn

So, Lord, don't rock the cradle and you better not rock the boat

Any deviance of what's deemed worthy, sure to have us at your throat

Words ain't worth a dime, more like pennies in a well

You'd better hope a wish til' your last earned cent

Cause copper don't spend in hell
