Common Sense by J. Edgar Hoover
I've got ideas that I want to see through and
I've yet to drop them though others throw them out
Evil bodies and hungry faces roam these streets
With virtues for taking but
Why pay for therapy when you've got at least
Eight hours and a car to drive
Cuz there's a level of distrust that you need to
Have common sense
I wish I didn't need common sense
I wish I didn't need common sense
I've got two ears and friends to lean on and
I think that's the most beautiful thing
J. Edgar Hoover had more ears than I do
And probably had more common sense, too
All the ideas shot down by his pistol now
Shouted by a whole new generation
Cuz there's a different kind of common sense
Tucked away in our heads and our songs
One day we'll get to bring them out
One day we'll get to bring them out
I've yet to drop them though others throw them out
Evil bodies and hungry faces roam these streets
With virtues for taking but
Why pay for therapy when you've got at least
Eight hours and a car to drive
Cuz there's a level of distrust that you need to
Have common sense
I wish I didn't need common sense
I wish I didn't need common sense
I've got two ears and friends to lean on and
I think that's the most beautiful thing
J. Edgar Hoover had more ears than I do
And probably had more common sense, too
All the ideas shot down by his pistol now
Shouted by a whole new generation
Cuz there's a different kind of common sense
Tucked away in our heads and our songs
One day we'll get to bring them out
One day we'll get to bring them out
