Tearing Down the Masters House

A half-loaf is better than no loaf
You do you think you are?
A bad attitude and a frank opinion
Won't get you very far
The Nat'l guard wants you off their yard
But I was too busy
Tearing down the master's house

There's two sides to every riot
Whom do you think you are?
If you don't believe it, come down and try it
They'll kiss your head with stars!
The Pastor said to keep a cool head
But we were too busy
Tearing down the master's house

Summertime and the living is cryptic.
Where do you think you are?
The streets are broken but they never fixed it
The old crow didn't fly far
The men at the gate will ask you to wait
But we're all too busy
Tearing down the master's house
