Lyrics

The billboards in the stores aren’t what I’m looking for
But sometimes they’re all I see
The persons on the radio tell me what I already know
I wish that they would leave me be
Well anorexic teenage girls and soccer moms in a real girl’s world
May never fit into a size three
But they are told what beauty is by men who sit in offices
Who tell them what a woman should be
The preacher on your TV set
Whose face is red and full of sweat
Is praying for us to all be millionaires
He can heal the sick and blind they say
Even heal a man from being gay
And for a small fee he’ll take away all your cares
A soldier in a foreign land
Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan
Will soon arrive home to his wife and kids
We’ve been at war for far too long
The Middle East and then Vietnam
Let’s bring him home so he can finally live
We’re all a bit older now
We need to ask all the why’s and how’s
So we can truly be a land that?
To live in debt or be born dead
So our children can know what freedom means
