Lyrics
Live For Today
Intro I
Live for today
Don?t let them lie to you
Doubt what they say
They could be wrong
Its only time
We?ve got a lot of it
They?re running short
Won?t be long
Verse I
We know the questions
We?ve got the answers
No absolution
Forget it
We keep the door shut
We take the short cut
No time for loosers
New rule
We got the door key
We set the truth free
We like confusion
Don?t get it?
Don?t like oppression
Feed on obsession
Like our depression
Can?t be
Chorus
And every time we think we have it figured out
you come along and try to make a statement when you say
You can?t be right
You got it wrong
We don?t hear a thing you say
You don?t belong
Its black and white
Can?t believe you think that way
You set the stage
We do the time
We don?r play the games you play
You make the plan
You show the way
We live life from day to day
We don?t want your social stigma (outcast,climbers)
We don?t tow your party line (pa Party line)
We will build a world much better
Let us be and we?ll do fine
We don't need your stamped approval
We don?t want your sympathy (sa Sympaty)
We don?t need your condemnation
We won't take the third degree
Intro II
Live for today
Don?t let them lie to you
Doubt what they say
They could be wrong
Its only time
We?ve got a lot of it
They?re running short
Won?t be long
Verse II
We let the dogs out
We set the fire
No doubt about it
We got it
We take the right steps
Dance to illusion
Play the right music
You see
We?re on the inside
Know information
Got the connections
Don?t doubt it
You?re on the outside
No destination
Distant relation
Agree?
Chorus
And every time we think we have it figured out
you come along and try to make a statement when you say
You can?t be right
You got it wrong
We don?t hear a thing you say
You don?t belong
Its black and white
Can?t believe you think that way
You set the stage
We do the time
We don?r play the games you play
You make the plan
You show the way
We live life from day to day
We don?t want your social stigma (outcast,climbers)
We don?t tow your party line (pa Party line)
We will build a world much better
Let us be and we?ll do fine
We don't need your stamped approval
We don?t want your sympathy (sa Sympaty)
We don?t need your condemnation
We won't take the third degree
Intro III and fade
Live for today
Don?t let them lie to you
Doubt what they say
They could be wrong
Its only time
We?ve got a lot of it
They?re running short
Won?t be long
