If I had a million dollars, would you work for me?
Well, I don't know my friend, I guess we'll have to wait and see
Would you do anything that I asked you to do?
Yes I would if the money came through
What would you have us do? Uh huh
What would you have us do?
If I lined you up with money, sent you out each day?
Well, that's all right my friend, I'd do it any night or day
Could I wind you, and make you a toy or could I pay you just to call you boy?
Cause that's what I'd like to do, Uh huh. That's what I'd like to do
Quoting the words my mommy say, I'd even kill you baby if I'm paid
Do What your mommy do, don't do what your mommy do
If I sent you to the war tell me more what would you do?
I just might go to the store and bring the change home to you
So look around, listen to the sound, what would have us do?
Don't do what your mommy do, just love her
Don't do what your mommy do.

Hey Rob

I sat frustrated in my room about 22, still kind of shaken by the news.
I never knew ya, but I think that you knew me
and these notes I write, with respect and sincerity
And brother, though you're gone, know the spirit still lives on
A flame burns deep, inside of me
And Brothers Black to Comm, from East L.A. to Vietnam
Throw down your guns, you're singing with me
Raise our glasses high, let our voices fill the sky
Hey god - we're gonna try - you'll see
To be the best damn human beings that we can be
And if tomorrow never comes, we got tonight to have some fun
We'll dance and show our love to thee
Rob you ain't dead, man, you're still inside of me.

Sick City

Restless people, of a sick city.
They burnt their homes down, to make the sky look pretty
What can I do, I'm just a person.
This is the the line that we always seem to hear, you just sit there
Things get worse and you, Watch TV and drink your beer
Walking all alone, not going anywhere
Walking all alone, nobody seem to care
Restless as the wind this town's killing me
Gotta put an end to this restless misery
You see I'm just one of those people, who can never seem to be
Satisfied with livin', in this sick old, this sick old, sick old, sick city
It may be too late for me to say goodbye
And it may be too late to watch this sick ole' city die
Gone on the road yeah I'm gonna try
To say sick city, so long, goodbye, and die

Where have all the years gone, the joys the tears are gone and done
I'd give up anything, to be young again
I've lived a full and happy life, a home, a child, a pretty wife
I'd give it all up to be young again
It's hard to get along, think tomorrow may never come
Got pills and vitamins, walking stick between my hands
I don't like it anymore
Where have all my friends gone, the youth, the past is gone and done
I'd give up anything to be young again
Yesterday is but a memory, tomorrow is a glimpse at what's to be
God take my hand, make me young again
t's hard to get along, think tomorrow may never come
Got pills and vitamins, walking stick between my hands
Living for the memories, of what life used to be
Mind stuck in constant fear, need machines to help me hear
I don't like it anymore
Where have all the years gone, the joys the tears are gone and done
I'd give up anything, to be young again
