《The Ostrich(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:01] The Ostrich - Steppenwolf

[00:00:30] We'll call you when you're six years old

[00:00:34] And drag you to the factory

[00:00:39] To train your brain for eighteen years

[00:00:43] With promise of security

[00:00:47] But then you're free

[00:00:52] And forty years you waste to chase the dollar sign

[00:00:57] So you may die in Florida

[00:01:04] At the pleasant age of sixty nine

[00:01:10] The water's getting hard to drink

[00:01:15] We've mangled up the country side

[00:01:19] The air will choke you when you breathe

[00:01:24] We're all committing suicide

[00:01:28] But it's alright

[00:01:33] It's progress folks keep pushin' till your body rots

[00:01:37] Will strip the earth of all it's green

[00:01:44] And then divide her into parking lots

[00:01:51] But there's nothing you and I can do

[00:01:56] You and I are only two

[00:01:57] What's right and wrong is hard to say

[00:02:00] Forget about it for today

[00:02:02] We'll stick our heads into the sand

[00:02:05] Just pretend that all is grand

[00:02:07] Then hope that everything turns out ok

[00:03:12] But there's nothing you and I can do

[00:03:17] You and I are only two

[00:03:19] What's right and wrong is hard to say

[00:03:21] Forget about it for today

[00:03:23] We'll stick our heads into the sand

[00:03:26] Just pretend that all is grand

[00:03:28] Then hope that everything turns out ok

[00:03:32] You're free to speak your mind my friend

[00:03:37] As long as you agree with me

[00:03:41] Don't criticize the father land

[00:03:46] Or those who shape your destiny

[00:03:50] 'Cause if you do

[00:03:55] You'll lose your job your mind and all the friends you knew

[00:03:59] We'll send out all our boys in blue

[00:04:06] They'll find a way to silence you

[00:04:13] But there's nothing you and I can do

[00:04:18] You and I are only two

[00:04:20] What's right and wrong is hard to say

[00:04:22] Forget about it for today

[00:04:24] We'll stick our heads into the sand

[00:04:27] Just pretend that all is grand

[00:04:29] Then hope that everything turns out ok
