[00:09.75]We've got to stand a little closer to
[00:12.15]what it is we're leaning on,
[00:14.71]Who was it that first said it?
[00:17.21]Could it be he could be wrong
[00:19.28]about the pilgrims and the natives
[00:21.97]having dinner on the lawn?
[00:24.14]I think if I was ever king
[00:26.90]I'd buy a censorship where the only books
[00:30.83]upon the shelves were the ones
[00:32.85]that I had read. Open 'em up at borders,
[00:36.55]send my photo down the spine to tell
[00:38.79]the story of the living
[00:40.84]without forgetting those who died.
[00:43.49]And I would die a happy man 'cause
[00:46.31]I did the best that I could do
[00:48.40]to find a better way of leavin' should
[00:51.40]we leave that up to you.
[00:53.70]Who was it that first said it?
[00:56.21]Yea, the one who said it best:
[00:58.45]you've got to L-O-V-E your neighbors,
[01:00.91]at least the ones who are still left!
[01:03.75]We've got to stand a little closer
[01:06.11]to the lessons that we've learned,
[01:08.61]is it just a premonition,
[01:10.60]could we really get ourselves (?)
[01:13.55]I've been sent here on a mission to find
[01:16.03]what we agreed upon-
[01:17.93]we don't agree about September,
[01:20.51]can we agree on Vietnam?
[01:23.28]I think if I was ever a publisher,
[01:25.83]I'd buy a pirate ship
[01:28.20]where the mission at each position
[01:30.22]is to shoot and to (?)
[01:32.49]clean the photos up a little,
[01:35.20]censor the ship out of it so
[01:37.74]I would put it up at borders,
[01:40.25]turn a profit on my trip.
[01:42.95]Charge the public for the overhead of 1492,
[01:47.65]and if they need a better reason
[01:50.26]tell 'em we got living proof.
[01:53.33]
[02:12.71]And I would die a happy man 'cause
[02:15.52]I did the best that I could do
[02:17.72]to find a better way of leavin'
[02:20.34]should we leave that up to you.
[02:22.92]Who was it that first said it, yea,
[02:25.50]that's what I'm trying to say,
[02:27.87]you've got to L-O-V-E your neighbors,
[02:30.30]at least the ones who live today.
