Black Man In the Snow

Got in power just by accident
A lucky streak in a gambling den
Red roses raining on the windshield
State of mind comes vacuum-sealed
Call me the running high speed train
Crossing bridges 'cause there's love to gain
We kill you when we think it's time to do
'Cause you never mind what we expect from you
Fool the people as you think they're dumb
Won't you recognize that you're blind and numb
Breaking promises isn't hard to do
When the upper class is looking up to you
Political landslide brought you in charge
Smiling from big screens only to talk at large
You're telling the lies and everybody buys 'em
You're a simple man yourself, born in New Haven

When he's there, he will say: From now on we do things a different way
A different way
A different way
From now on we do things a different way
When he's there, he will say: From now on we do things a different way
A different way
A different way
From now on we do things a different way

Finally the neighbourhood's completely changed
All we love's been abandoned and rearranged
Destroyed the markets, changed for worse
Floating over the country just like a curse
Believe in money, that makes you a killing
Sayin' your opponents don't sound much different than Dylan
Always been the black sheep of the family
The one that mocked your dad is your arch enemy
But now the times have changed for good
A single night at all changed a billion moods
Seems like a black man in the snow
Unites the world just when he's good to go
But remember that your work won't be easy at all
When hearts get broken, it's real tears that fall
We set a lot of hope inside o' you
So let's get it on, there'll be a lot to do

When he's there, he will say: From now on we do things a different way
A different way
A different way
From now on we do things a different way
When he's there, he will say: From now on we do things a different way
A different way
A different way
From now on we do things a different way!

When he's there, he will say: From now on we do things a different way!
A different way
A different way
From now on we do things a different way
When he's there, he will say: From now on we do things a different way
A different way
A different way
From now on we do things a different way
