lyrics
Electric correspondence
Lines on a page
Creditor despondence
Lives in a rage
The rest of us are hungry
The rest of us are mad
Some of us are lonely
Some of us are bad
Come along side me
Take me for a drink
Don't tell me what to think, But help me
Help me help myself
Come along side me
Don't tell me who to be
Just deal with this for me and help me
Help me help myself
Generous in giving
Never quick to take
Abundantly living
For everybody's sake
Some of us are hungry
Some of us are poor
And they won't stop coming
Til they break down your door
Come along side me
Take me for a drink
Don't tell me what to think, But help me
Help me help myself
Come along side me
Don't tell me who to be
Just deal with this for me and help me
Help me help myself
And the light shines brightly in the darkness
Like a city on a hill
But the monsters wont stop coming
Til they get their fill
Come along side me
Take me for a drink
Don't tell me what to think, But help me
Help me help myself
Come along side me
Don't tell me who to be
Just deal with this for me and help me
Help me help myself
Come along side me
Take me for a drink
Don't tell me what to think, But help me
Help me help myself
Come along side me
Don't tell me who to be
Just deal with this for me and help me
Help me help myself
