Walk on the Flood

They kill it in the comedy clubs

They're killing in the schools

Make a killing on Wall St.

Adjust the golden rule

Do unto others

It's surely what they'd do

Remember the memories

We were all once children too

Ashes ashes

All in the name of who

We say howdy neighbor

I love you Mom and Dad

But if you're a stranger

You must want something we have

I know you don't like me

Am I really that bad

Remember the schoolyard

There were no strangers in the sand

Fascist fascist

Let's see a show of hands

If we're all going to fly

We'll need a safe place to land

This is the picture I painted this morning

There are the colors memories forming

These are the pictures we painted together

We elected our leaders

So we've been told

Got no right to complain

We've bought what they sold

The slogan of the day is

Put peace on hold

Lennon would have us laughing

If we'd just let him grow old

Pacifist pacifist

Ain't we a sight to behold

Some people feel so much

We're making new drugs

Mister Rogers and Oprah

Other channels have blood

Trying and dying

Water and mud

Forgiving for the love

Take a walk on the flood

Forgiving for the love

And walk on the flood

This is the picture I painted this morning

These are the colors this was my warning

These are the pictures we painted together

This is the picture I painted this morning

These are the colors, memories are forming

These are the pictures we painted together
