Another Alibi

Have they taken the law into their own hands.
Tell an artist "we don't like your style".
They've workes out a way to live.
The priest reminds them what to give.
The church stands tall. The people still in rags.

Don't ask me why.
It's sometimes easy to lie.
Don't ask me why.
I'll find Another Alibi.

Did man poses for a photograph.
He don't care whose right or whose wrong.
Nothing is what it appears to be.
He just sees what he wants to see.
Church stands. Tall people still in rags.

Don't ask him
Why he's no tears left to cry.
Don't ask him why.
He'll find Another Alibi.

So good to lie and walk on your golden sand.
Blessed by the sun the Almighty Hand.
We're happy passing through.
Must look pretty strange to you.
Church still stands tall. The people still in rags.

Don't ask them why.
They know what it is to get by.
Don't ask them why.
They'll find Another Alibi.
