I took a flag to a pawnshop
For a broken guitar
I took a flag to a pawnshop
How much is that guitar
I took a flag to a pawnshop
Got me a guitar
What?s a flag in a pawnshop to me?
Saw a man on the TV
In a mask with a gun
Saw a man on the TV
He had a ten-year old son
Saw a man on the TV
His son had a gun
He says that he?s coming for me
I never loved the soldier until there was a war
I never cared about tomorrow till my baby hit the floor
Only talk to God when somebody?s about to die
Never cherished Freedom
Freedom never cries.
Wrote a song for a dead man
To settle my soul
Wrote a song for a dead man
Now I?ll never grow old
Wrote a song for a dead man
Now I?m out in the cold
Whatís a song to a dead man to me?
I never loved the soldier until there was a war
I never cared about tomorrow till my baby hit the floor
Only talk to God when somebody?s about to die
Never cherished Freedom
Freedom never cries.
You can cry for her
You can die for her
Lay down your life for her
Kiss and wave Goodbye to her
Anything at all
You can cry for her
Die for her
Make up your mind to her
Anything at all
There?s a baby on the doorstep
Wailing away
There?s a baby on the doorstep
Longing for the day
There?s a baby on the doorstep
Who?d give his life to take
A flag to a pawnshop
A flag to a pawnshop
May he forget why he is crying some day
World
Got a package full of Wishes
A Time machine, a Magic wand
A Globe made out of Gold
No Instructions or Commandments
Laws of Gravity or
Indecisions to uphold
Printed on the box I see
A.C.M.E.?s Build-a-World-to-be
Take a chance - Grab a piece
Help me to believe it
What kind of world do you want?
Think Anything
Let?s start at the start
Build a masterpiece
Be careful what you wish for
History starts now?
Should there be people or peoples
Money, Funny pedestals for Fools who never pay
Raise your Army ? Choose your Steeple
Don?t be shy the satellites can look the other way
Lose the Earthquakes ? Keep the Faults
Fill the oceans without the salt
Let every Man own his own Hand
What kind of world do you want?
Think Anything
Let?s start at the start
Build a masterpiece
Be careful what you wish for
History starts now?
Sunlight?s on the Bridge
Sunlight?s on the Way
Tomorrow?s Calling
There?s more to this than Love
What Kind of world do you want
What Kind of world do you want
What Kind of world do you want
Think Anything
Let?s start at the start
Build a masterpiece
History Starts Now
Be Careful what you wish for
Start Now?
