Hive

When you've been away, it's good to get back home
It's familiar; You know the buildings, you know the streets
It's your home
Your city
But it's a big city, with streets you've never walked
With houses you've never entered
People you've never seem
This little girl is just as much a part of your city as the neighbor's girl
You wave to on your way to work every morning
Of course, if you saw her as much as you saw your neighbor's girl
If you knew she had pneumonia, you'd want to help her get the medical care she needs
But with only one pair of eyes, you can't see all of the sick little girls in your city
Nor can you see the woman who lives alone, no longer cared for
No longer caring
She is your neighbor too
And if you knew about her and about all of the others also alone, you'd try to help
Her friendless room is just a part of St. Louis as city and country
But with only one pair of eyes, you can't see the whole city

Despite our best efforts, shortages of marijuana are being reported
Are being reported
Does anyone work in these fucking offices?

Since they have attacked the United States
I feel that the president has all the rights - and should have it, and
Congress should give it to him - all the rights and power by which to prosecute
War and ever (unintelligible) the
Japan government

When you've been away, it's good to get back home
It's familiar; You know the buildings, you know the streets
It's your home
Your city
But it's a big city, with streets you've never walked
With houses you've never entered
People you've never seem
This little girl is just as much a part of your city as the neighbor's girl
You wave to on your way to work every morning
Of course, if you saw her as much as you saw your neighbor's girl
If you knew she had pneumonia, you'd want to help her get the medical care she needs
But with only one pair of eyes, you can't see all of the sick little girls in your city
Nor can you see the woman who lives alone, no longer cared for
No longer caring
She is your neighbor too
And if you knew about her and about all of the others also alone, you'd try to help
Her friendless room is just a part of St. Louis as city and country
But with only one pair of eyes, you can't see the whole city
