Long Way from Paradise
We got loud guitars and a rockin' band
Ain't gonna stop until you understand
There's a whole world of evil in the heart of man
It's a far, far cry from Caanan's land
It's a Long Way from Paradise
We got carbon monoxide and acid rain
Designer drugs that can melt your brain
We got drive by murder, the mark of Cain
Neo - nazis and the K.K.K.
It's a Long Way from Paradise
Long Way from Paradise
Long Way from Paradise
You can play it safe, or role the dice
But the heart of the city is as cold as ice
It's a Long Way from Paradise
You know the thief on the cross didn't have much time
Had a talk with Jesus on the day He died
He said "Forgive me Lord for a life of crime"
Got a guarantee in the nick of time
He was a Long Way from Paradise
Ain't gonna stop until you understand
There's a whole world of evil in the heart of man
It's a far, far cry from Caanan's land
It's a Long Way from Paradise
We got carbon monoxide and acid rain
Designer drugs that can melt your brain
We got drive by murder, the mark of Cain
Neo - nazis and the K.K.K.
It's a Long Way from Paradise
Long Way from Paradise
Long Way from Paradise
You can play it safe, or role the dice
But the heart of the city is as cold as ice
It's a Long Way from Paradise
You know the thief on the cross didn't have much time
Had a talk with Jesus on the day He died
He said "Forgive me Lord for a life of crime"
Got a guarantee in the nick of time
He was a Long Way from Paradise
