They say
|
This land gets more and more divided
|
If I may
|
I think that’s not the only side why
|
Just today
|
I read the late edition paper
|
And no way
|
I saw the North and South united
|
Like the blood
|
That flows every color body
|
It’s enough
|
We’ve finally all at the same party
|
Looking down
|
It may not be the thing we wanted
|
But there’s finally enough to go around
|
From New York to California
|
From Detroit down to the border
|
We all have more in common now than we do not
|
'Cause everybody knows somebody
|
(Everybody knows somebody)
|
Everybody knows somebody
|
(Everybody knows somebody)
|
Everybody knows somebody who got shot
|
They say
|
There’s trouble brewing in the union
|
Hip hooray
|
Look human beings being human
|
Laying blame
|
Wherever there is room to lay it’s
|
All the same
|
You want the red pill or the blue one
|
But it’s all
|
About to change, something is getting us
|
Aboard
|
The SS progress, one big funeral
|
For all
|
The people that we used to call
|
Before they risked their lives
|
To head out to the mosque or to the mall
|
From New York to California
|
From Detroit down to the border
|
We all have more in common now than we do not
|
'Cause everybody knows somebody
|
(Everybody knows somebody)
|
Everybody knows somebody
|
(Everybody knows somebody)
|
Everybody knows somebody who got shot
|
From the mountain rivers to the public squares
|
Everybody’s getting really good at sending thoughts and prayers
|
From the Heart of Dixie up to Oregon
|
We can can all rest assured there’ll be a slaughter somewhere by the dawn
|
And in the nightclubs all the dancers in the dark
|
They can twist the night away with extra fear inside their hearts
|
From New England to Alaska every child
|
Will know exactly what to do now when a shooter opens fire
|
From New York to California
|
From Detroit down to the border
|
We all have more in common now than we do not
|
'Cause everybody knows somebody
|
(Everybody knows somebody)
|
Everybody knows somebody
|
(Everybody knows somebody)
|
Everybody knows somebody
|
(Everybody knows somebody)
|
This land is your land
|
This land is my land
|
This land is our land
|
Until it’s not
|
'Cause everybody knows somebody
|
(Everybody knows somebody)
|
Everybody knows somebody
|
(Everybody knows somebody)
|
Everybody knows somebody
|
Until everybody’s gone |
