| [00:30.36] | When we were young we pledged allegiance |
| [00:34.24] | Every morning of our lives |
| [00:37.62] | The classroom rang with children's voices |
| [00:41.55] | Under teacher's watchful eye |
| [00:43.05] | |
| [00:44.93] | We learned about the world around us |
| [00:47.43] | |
| [00:48.94] | At our desks and at dinnertime |
| [00:51.17] | |
| [00:52.24] | Reminded of the starving children |
| [00:54.36] | |
| [00:56.05] | We cleaned our plates with guilty minds |
| [00:58.43] | |
| [00:59.93] | And the stones in the road shone like diamonds in the dust |
| [01:05.24] | |
| [01:07.18] | And then a voice called to us to make our way back home |
| [01:12.43] | |
| [01:14.61] | When I was ten |
| [01:16.11] | My father held me on his shoulders above the crowd |
| [01:21.93] | To see a train draped in mourning |
| [01:24.93] | Pass slowly through our town |
| [01:27.99] | |
| [01:29.36] | His widow kneeled with all their children |
| [01:32.92] | At the sacred burial ground |
| [01:35.17] | |
| [01:36.80] | And the TV glowed that long hot summer |
| [01:39.74] | |
| [01:40.36] | With all the cities burning down |
| [01:42.61] | |
| [01:43.99] | And the stones in the road |
| [01:46.61] | |
| [01:47.24] | Flew out beneath our bicycle tires |
| [01:49.55] | |
| [01:51.20] | Worlds removed from all those fires |
| [01:53.57] | |
| [01:55.01] | As we raced each other home |
| [01:57.07] | |
| [02:27.25] | And now we drink our coffee on the run |
| [02:31.03] | We climb that ladder rung by rung |
| [02:34.66] | We are the daughters and the sons |
| [02:38.41] | And here's the line that's missing |
| [02:44.41] | The starving children have been replaced |
| [02:47.97] | By souls out on the street |
| [02:51.22] | We give a dollar when we pass |
| [02:53.91] | |
| [02:55.28] | And hope our eyes don't meet |
| [02:59.03] | We pencil in we cancel out we crave the corner suite |
| [03:04.09] | |
| [03:05.78] | We kiss your ass we make you hold we doctor the receipt |
| [03:11.10] | |
| [03:14.22] | And the stones in the road fly out from beneath our wheels |
| [03:19.79] | |
| [03:20.91] | Another day another deal before we get back home |
| [03:26.23] | |
| [03:28.55] | And the stones in the road leave a mark from whence they came |
| [03:35.86] | A thousand points of light or shame baby I don't know |
