Chip Away
Talking heads are making dollars
It's like doing the crack day after day
Dropping taxes on business fathers
It'll work this time, they say
Gotta rise up, gotta keep on fightin'
You know we've seen this all before
This too shall stop, if we keep our heads on
It'll work this time, they say
Chip away, chip away, I'm withdrawin'
Chip away, gonna pray - for something new
Chip away, chip away can you hear me callin'?
Gonna wait til this is through
Oh, history, has had some great men
Some badass motherfuckers who didn't give a shit
FDR would laugh, Martin Luther'd holler
Ol' Abe would put an end to this
Oh, they put an end to this
Chip away, chip away, I'm withdrawin'
Chip away, gonna pray - for something new
Chip away, chip away can you hear me callin'?
Gonna wait til this is through
I hear it often nowadays, that the earth is flat, or so they say
And that living beings came to be all the sudden one day
And that white is right and the rest is wrong, I'll scratch all that and keep moving on
This will pass, this time, just wait
Oh, history
Chip away, chip away, I'm withdrawin'
Chip away, gonna pray - for something new
Chip away, chip away can you hear me callin'?
Gonna wait til this is through
Chip away, chip away, I'm withdrawin'
Chip away, gonna pray - for something new
Chip away, chip away can you hear me callin'?
Gonna wait til this is through
Chip away, chip away, I'm withdrawin'
Chip away, gonna pray - for something new
Chip away, chip away can you hear me callin'?
Gonna wait til this is through
It's like doing the crack day after day
Dropping taxes on business fathers
It'll work this time, they say
Gotta rise up, gotta keep on fightin'
You know we've seen this all before
This too shall stop, if we keep our heads on
It'll work this time, they say
Chip away, chip away, I'm withdrawin'
Chip away, gonna pray - for something new
Chip away, chip away can you hear me callin'?
Gonna wait til this is through
Oh, history, has had some great men
Some badass motherfuckers who didn't give a shit
FDR would laugh, Martin Luther'd holler
Ol' Abe would put an end to this
Oh, they put an end to this
Chip away, chip away, I'm withdrawin'
Chip away, gonna pray - for something new
Chip away, chip away can you hear me callin'?
Gonna wait til this is through
I hear it often nowadays, that the earth is flat, or so they say
And that living beings came to be all the sudden one day
And that white is right and the rest is wrong, I'll scratch all that and keep moving on
This will pass, this time, just wait
Oh, history
Chip away, chip away, I'm withdrawin'
Chip away, gonna pray - for something new
Chip away, chip away can you hear me callin'?
Gonna wait til this is through
Chip away, chip away, I'm withdrawin'
Chip away, gonna pray - for something new
Chip away, chip away can you hear me callin'?
Gonna wait til this is through
Chip away, chip away, I'm withdrawin'
Chip away, gonna pray - for something new
Chip away, chip away can you hear me callin'?
Gonna wait til this is through
