Songtext:
There must be some kinda way out of here
Said the joker to the thief
I want to tell you now
You know there's just too much confusion
And I can't no I can't get no relief
All these businessmen they all drink our wine
And the plowman well he dig my earth
And you know that none fo them along the line
Can show me what any of this is worth
You know we wanted to see it now didn't we didn't we
There ain't no reason to get excited
The thief you know he kindly spoke
Well now there are those among us right here right nowВ
Who still see life as some kind of a joke
But you and I we have been through that
I tel yu that this this is not our fate no no no
Now let us all not talk falsely now
You know the hour it's getting late
I said all along the watchtower
The princes they kept the view
While the women the womenВ
They came and then they went
And barefoot servants too
That's me that's you
But outside there's a cold distance
Listen for the wildcats here them growl
Two riders were approaching
As the wind began to howl
I said now shelter me
Oh there are those among us right here right now
Who still see life as some kind of a joke
All along the watchtower
I said all along this watchtower
Those of you who still have eyes to seeВ
Ears hear me
You will be saved by grace in the end
Saved by time if you don't understand
That your hatred is rooted in your fear
And your paranoia and insecurities
Well they don't belong here
You got to take someone's hand
You got to learn to make a stand
And it's one two three fourВ
Look at the sky you can open the door
And take my hand take my hand
Take my hand
Ah you don't want to touchВ
Don't you want to feel
Don't you know that this is real
I said shelter me
Shelter me shelter me
Shelter me
And save yourself save yourself
Save your save your save your save your
Save your save your save your save your
Save your
Save
And you
You
And you are a part of the world
You you are a part of the world
You gotta learn to touch to feel
And know that you are real
I said learn learn
You are a part of the world
Said the joker to the thief
I want to tell you now
You know there's just too much confusion
And I can't no I can't get no relief
All these businessmen they all drink our wine
And the plowman well he dig my earth
And you know that none fo them along the line
Can show me what any of this is worth
You know we wanted to see it now didn't we didn't we
There ain't no reason to get excited
The thief you know he kindly spoke
Well now there are those among us right here right nowВ
Who still see life as some kind of a joke
