After The Fire - Short Change lyrics

rate me

I think it’s time we talked a while together

And I mean face to face

This time we don’t just talk about the weather

I'll pick the time and the place

I think its time they told us what they’re doing

It’s turning to a disgrace

They promise us the world

But all we ever get from them is —

Shortchange - they got us standing in line

Shortchange - I think they’re wasting our time

Shortchange - I’m looking round for a sign

Shortchange - life is a serious crime I think

It’s time they came out of the darkness

I want to look in their eyes

They think that truth is something they can harness

I’m tired of hearing their lies

This time there’s going to be a confrontation

And they will get the surprise

‘cause they promise us the world

But all we ever get from them is-

Shortchange - they got us standing in line

Shortchange - I think they’re wasting our time

Shortchange - I’m looking round for a sign

Shortchange - life is a serious crime I think

It’s time we talked a while together - Talk a while Talk awhile,

I think it’s time we talked awhile

I think it’s time we talked together, face to face,

Face to face, face to face, let’s talk together face to face

This time we don’t just talk about the weather,talk about talk about,

the weather, we can talk about

‘cause they promise us the world

But all we ever get from them is-

Shortchange - they got us standing in line

Shortchange - I think they’re wasting our time

Shortchange - I’m looking round for a sign

Shortchange - life is a serious crime

Life is a serious crime

Life is a serious crime
