Jewel - Who Will Save Your Soul lyrics

rate me

People living their lives for you on tv<br>They say they're better than you and you agree<br>He says hold my calls from behind those cold brick walls<br>Says come here boys, there ain't nothing for free<br>Another doctor's bill, another lawyer's bill, another cute cheap thrill<br>You know you love him if you put him in your will, but ...<br><br>Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now<br>Who will save your soul after all the lies that you told, boy<br>Who will save your soul if you won't save your own? <br><br>We try to hustle them, try to bustle them, try to cuss them<br>The cops want someone to bust down on orleans avenue<br>Another day, another dollar, another war, another tower<br>Went up to where the homeless had their homes<br>So we pray to as many different gods are there are flowers<br>But we call religion our friend<br>We're so worried about saving our souls<br>Afraid that God will take his toll that we forget to begin but<br><br>Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now<br>Who will save your soul after all the lies that you told, boy<br>Who will save your soul if you won't save your own? <br><br>Some are walking, some are talking, some are stalking their kill<br>You got social security, but that don't pay your bills<br>There are addictions to feed and there are mouths to pay<br>So you bargain with the devil, say you're o.k. for today<br>You say that you love them, take their money and run<br>Say, it's been swell, sweetheart, but it was just one of those things<br>Those flings, those strings you've got to cut<br>So get out on the streets, girls, and bust your butts<br><br>Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now<br>Who will save your soul after all the lies that you told, boy<br>Who will save your soul if you won't save your own?
