She is gone, seventeen And her son, just turned three Lives off society and contempt Feeds her son pays the rent And I wonder who's to blame And I wonder who's to blame Daddy loves his little girl She's his pride, his joy, and his world But they took her from his life She's been missing since July And I wonder who's to blame And I wonder who's to blame He takes a promise that he'll lead the way Finally to stay tomorrow Shine a light upon virgin roads to peace Where no one dares to go Let's come together all as one For to change this road that we're on There's an answer it's called love But we nailed it to the cross, a long time ago And I wonder (wonder) who's to blame And I wonder who's to blame And I wonder wonder who's to blame And I wonder who's to blame For the suffering of the children The lying and the killing Who's to blame For the hurting and the sorrow And a hopeless tomorrow Tell me who's to blame I know that we can make it better If we all just come together Cause there's evil everywhere And it's much more than I can bear There's a cross that we can carry And a burden we can bury Still it all remains the same Somebody tell me who's to blame Who's to blame (Repeat ad-lib, to fade) IN YOUR LIFE Well what started as laughter somehow turned to pain And what sounded like thunder was confirmed by the rain And what once felt so wonderful feels like despair And on the door I once knocked upon hangs a sign That says that no one is there anymore Is there any room left in your life for me, in your life for me Is there any love left in your heart for me, in your heart for me Are there any tears left in your eyes for me Now the silence speaks soo loud that we never say a word So the thoughts that were thinking are never really heard And all the smiles that were forcing reveal that we both know It was only a matter of time before one of us decided We should go our separate ways Is there any room left in your life for me, in your life for me Is there any love left in your heart for me, you were apart from me Is there any time left in your life for me in your life for me Are there any tears left in your eyes for me in your eyes for me, would you cry for me Cause I think that weve been holding on too long, And I think that weve been hiding what was wrong, And it breaks my heart to know that all along I was losing you before you were ever gone Is there any room left in your life for me, in your life for me Is there any love left in your heart for me, you were a part of me Are there any tears left in your eyes for me, in your eyes for me Is there any room left in your life for me, in your life for me HEY ALFREDO (SHE LIKES ME FOR MEAT) (This is my version of this song, for those who enjoy food) She dont care about my kraut She dont care about my honey And thats real good cause I dont got a lot to spread But if I did it wouldnt bean nothin' She likes me for meat Not because I taste like toasted bagels With a case of Dr. Pepper Oozing out my ears (of corn) But what she eats Are my krauts and incrustations My indented corn chips And the butter upon the bread that I spread She dont care about my leafy greens Or my selection of dairy things Foods like that just never mattered much to her Plus she dont drink too much tea And she dont care that I can fry her Two pieces of chicken nice and thin If she really wants to grow I think deep Down she knows that all she has to say is vitamin She likes me for meat Not because I hang with Alfredo Or that guy who played in Frygo I think his name is Nes-Tea Shes the oil for me And I just cant cook without her My vines belong around her And Im so glad I cook with her once again And Im so glad I cook with her once again And Im so glad I cook with her once again Gazing at the seedlings as we entertain our feelings in the greenhouse The spring that were afraid of is gonna Grow us into what were made of in the end She likes me for meat Not because I smell like Pastrami Or because Im such a Brattie (bun) I like her for curds Not because shes white like Sandy Crawfish She has got so much to fry for Why does she waste all her thyme on me There must be something there that I dont see She likes me for meat Not because Im tough like beef jerky Make her laugh just like Jim Cranberry Unlike the Corny Guy But what see sees Is that I cant cook without her My vines belong around her And Im so glad I cook with her once again Cook with her once again Yeah Im so glad I cook with her once again AS LONG AS WE'RE TOGETHER Here we are on this ride to nowhere On this road to somewhere we have never been before We'll be all right As long as we're together We're like little people from the little places All together searching for that bigger constellation Well be all right As long as we're together What a union we could be if we just had the power What a moment we could seize in our finest hour Everything in time happens in this light Though our hands are tied We will still survive Well, here we are and we've climbed the mountain Now we see the river but there's poison in the water Say it's all right If we just drink together Well, we see the road and we seen the signs Still we march in single file like cattle to the slaughter Yes, it's all right As long as we're together What a union we could be if we just had the power What a moment we could seize in our finest hour Everything in time happens in this light Though our hands are tied We will still survive We will still survive We are still alive Well, here we are on this ride to nowhere On this road to somewhere we have never been before We'll be all right As long as we're together Now we'll be all right As long as we're together We'll be all right As long as we're together WHAT a union we could be if we just had the power What a moment we could seize in our finest hour Everything in time happens in this light Though our hands are tied We will still survive Taste the music of my soul Tell me that it's sour You can rain on my parade But you'll never kill the flower Feed me all the lies They can rob me blind Choke us with your vines We will still survive We will still survive We are still alive (A ride to nowhere a ride to somewhere A ride to nowhere a ride to somewhere But best of all were there together)
