HOUSEMARTINS - Get Up Off Our Knees lyrics

rate me

Famines will be famines, banquets will be banquets<br>Some spend winter in a palace, some spend it in blankets<br>Don't wag your fingers at them and turn to walk away<br>Don't shoot someone tomorrow that you can shoot today<br>Time to end the praying<br>Listen what they're saying<br><br>Get up off your knees<br>You can wag your finger till your finger's sore<br>Shake your head till it shakes no more<br><br>Paupers will be paupers, bankers will be bankers<br>Some own pennies in a jar, some own oil tankers<br>What may sound like tomorrow could be ours today<br>There's no more need for sorrow if we get off our knees to pray<br><br>Time to end the praying<br>Listen what they're saying<br><br>Get up off your knees<br>You can wag your finger till your finger's sore<br>Shake your head till it shakes no more<br><br>Countries will be countries, borders will be borders<br>Some have lost their folks at war, some have give orders<br>Don't wag your fingers at them and turn to walk away<br>Don't shoot someone tomorrow that you can shoot today<br><br>Time to end the praying<br>Listen what they're saying
