Mission Bell

Mission bell is ringin' for you

No one 'round and nothin' to do

Memory will fly and will fall

It's something you used to write on the wall

Wrong, so wrong, we're wrong

People pass and walk a road that's

Long, so long, it's long

See you when the sun is high

Wind is wild and blowin' too fast

The first in line will soon be the last

And when you go, somebody will cite

Ground control, better cancel this flight

Wrong, so wrong, we're wrong

People pass and walk a road that's

Long, so long, it's long

See you when the sun is high

Maybe someday you'll finally reveal

Something you stole, or something you'll steal

Now everyone is pulling their load

And do they grow, or do they explode

Wrong, so wrong, we're wrong

People pass and walk a road that's

Long, so long, it's long

See you when the sun is high

Wrong, so wrong, we're wrong

People pass and walk a road that's

Long, so long, it's long

See you when the sun is high
