Some People

(album: Higher Power - 1994)

None of us are perfect
But some don't even try
Sat on your fat asses
Watch the world go by
Some seek vindication
And want their pound in flesh
Where'd you find that know-how
To sort out all the mess

Some people thrive
On watching peoples lives
Waiting for a chance to do 'em down
Easy to critisize
I've got nothing to hide
This city really could be a small town
Small town talk
And we don't ever love
To take a long long time
Make sure you get your turn
Yeah

That's right

Backstabbing frenzy
Bend over then you scream
One thing is for certain
And that's we never learn
Some say I'm a fool now
He lives his life in Hell
But though I live in Porquee
I know the feeling well

Some people thrive
On watching peoples lives
Waiting for a chance to do 'em down
Easy to criticize
I've got nothing to hide
This city really could be a small town
Small town talk
And we don't ever love
To take a long long time
Make sure you get your turn
Yeah

That's right

If you have ambitions
You ask lot of crap
Try to have compassion
And come to realize
To know the truth within you
And don't want telling lies
This perpetuation
Is really none to wise

Some people thrive
On watching peoples lives
Waiting for a chance to do 'em down
Easy to criticize
I've got nothing to hide
This city really could be a small town
Small town talk
And we don't ever love
To take a long long time
Make sure you get your turn
Yeah

That's right

Don't wanna hear what you gotta say
Please you keep out of my way now
'Cause I can't hear a word you say now
Thanks for making me staying now
All right
Come on
Get away
Hop away
All right
Come on
Get away
Ride away

Some people thrive
On watching peoples lives
Waiting for a chance to do 'em down
Easy to criticize
I've got nothing to hide
This city really could be a small town
