Tear Jerk
The city children, they know how to breed.
They've touched some love, but they believe in need.
I said to myself, I said I... I jerk those tears I don't cry.
The downtown bigots, they want to be friends.
I filled their cup up until they said when.
I said to myself, I said I... I jerk those tears I don't cry.
I feel a fever, a generation.
I am just human, I'm information.
It's true. It's true.
You gonna die die die and do that tear jerk.
and cry cry cry and do that tear jerk.
Why why why and do that tear jerk.
And I do that tear jerk, I do that tear jerk for you
The progress mongers, the south paws of smoke.
Full-formed veneers for us average folks.
I said to myself, I said I... I jerk those tears I don't cry.
And after us the engines will search
for fashion youth, the signs and wonders in shirts.
I said to myself I said I... I jerk those tears I don't cry.
I feel a fever, a generation.
I am just human, I'm information.
You gonna die die die and do that tear jerk.
and cry cry cry and do that tear jerk.
And I I I do that tear jerk, its true.
You gonna die die die and do that tear jerk.
and cry cry cry and do that tear jerk.
Why why why and do that tear jerk.
And I do that tear jerk, I do that tear jerk for you
I stole these rhythms from the man who had them.
He wiped his chin down with Uncle Tom's napkin.
He said you choose this day whom you will serve.
Take bits of grace, not just the things you will deserve.
Well Jesus Christ I said you're changing your mind.
You're turning water back from that wine.
And it's the day the Lord has made and the year of rabbits too.
I got my calendar mind and it's set on you.
You gonna die die die and do that tear jerk.
Why why why? and do that tear jerk.
And I I I do that tear jerk, its true.
You gonna die die die and do that tear jerk.
Why why why? and do that tear jerk.
And I I I and do that tear jerk.
And I do that tear jerk, I do that tear jerk for you
I do that tear jerk. I do that tear jerk for you.
They've touched some love, but they believe in need.
I said to myself, I said I... I jerk those tears I don't cry.
The downtown bigots, they want to be friends.
I filled their cup up until they said when.
I said to myself, I said I... I jerk those tears I don't cry.
I feel a fever, a generation.
I am just human, I'm information.
It's true. It's true.
You gonna die die die and do that tear jerk.
and cry cry cry and do that tear jerk.
Why why why and do that tear jerk.
And I do that tear jerk, I do that tear jerk for you
The progress mongers, the south paws of smoke.

I said to myself I said I... I jerk those tears I don't cry.
I feel a fever, a generation.

You gonna die die die and do that tear jerk.
and cry cry cry and do that tear jerk.
And I I I do that tear jerk, its true.
You gonna die die die and do that tear jerk.

And I I I and do that tear jerk.
And I do that tear jerk, I do that tear jerk for you
I do that tear jerk. I do that tear jerk for you.
