[00:01.21]Neighborhood Bully
[00:03.20]
[00:08.27]Well, the neighborhood bully, he's just one man,
[00:12.68]His enemies say he's on their land.
[00:14.60]They got him outnumbered about a million to one,
[00:18.15]He got no place to escape to, no place to run.
[00:23.96]He's the neighborhood bully.
[00:24.77]
[00:33.12]The neighborhood bully just lives to survive,
[00:36.88]He's criticized and condemned for being alive.
[00:39.30]He's not supposed to fight back, he's supposed to have thick skin,
[00:41.51]He's supposed to lay down and die when his door is kicked in.
[00:45.05]He's the neighborhood bully.
[00:47.85]
[00:53.40]The neighborhood bully been driven out of every land,
[00:55.96]He's wandered the earth an exiled man.
[01:02.42]Seen his family scattered, his people hounded and torn,
[01:04.98]He's always on trial for just being born.
[01:07.88]He's the neighborhood bully.
[01:13.70]
[01:14.20]Well, he knocked out a lynch mob, he was criticized,
[01:16.93]Old women condemned him, said he should apologize.
[01:20.60]Then he destroyed a bomb factory, nobody was glad.
[01:24.45]The bombs were meant for him.
[01:26.79]He was supposed to feel bad.
[01:28.01]He's the neighborhood bully.
[01:29.49]
[01:35.37]Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim
[01:38.61]That he'll live by the rules that the world makes for him,
[01:42.29]'cause there's a noose at his neck and a gun at his back
[01:45.73]And a license to kill him is given out to every maniac.
[01:49.45]He's the neighborhood bully.
[01:51.12]
[02:01.98]He got no allies to really speak of.
[02:03.91]What he gets he must pay for, he don't get it out of love.
[02:06.04]He buys obsolete weapons and he won't be denied
[02:11.02]But no one sends flesh and blood to fight by his side.
[02:14.70]He's the neighborhood bully.
[02:16.58]
[02:22.38]Well, he's surrounded by pacifists who all want peace,
[02:27.86]They pray for it nightly that the bloodshed must cease.
[02:29.45]Now, they wouldn't hurt a fly.
[02:32.92]To hurt one they would weep.
[02:33.97]They lay and they wait for this bully to fall asleep.
[02:36.11]He's the neighborhood bully.
[02:37.92]
[02:44.29]Every empire that's enslaved him is gone,
[02:46.95]Egypt and rome, even the great babylon.
[02:51.08]He's made a garden of paradise in the desert sand,
[02:55.66]In bed with nobody, under no one's command.
[02:57.98]He's the neighborhood bully.
[02:59.53]
[03:05.39]Now his holiest books have been trampled upon,
[03:09.06]No contract he signed was worth what it was written on.
[03:12.66]He took the crumbs of the world and he turned it into wealth,
[03:15.88]Took sickness and disease and he turned it into health.
[03:19.47]He's the neighborhood bully.
[03:21.09]
[03:27.77]What's anybody indebted to him for?
[03:30.60]Nothin', they say.
[03:33.62]He just likes to cause war.
[03:34.16]Pride and prejudice and superstition indeed,
[03:37.18]They wait for this bully like a dog waits to feed.
[03:40.59]He's the neighborhood bully.
[03:42.87]
[03:48.94]What has he done to wear so many scars?
[03:51.97]Does he change the course of rivers?
[03:54.20]Does he pollute the moon and stars?
[03:56.38]Neighborhood bully, standing on the hill,
[04:02.25]Running out the clock, time standing still,
[04:02.76]Neighborhood bully.
