This way or that way we go For most of us it's easier To watch the way they do betray With wait and see Looks on their face Vacant expressions replace What it was we stood for
We wonder at the motion of the step The blow The big disgrace Now we are stocking the mold That they have made To fit like glue Can't help but think it's all our fault Can't help but wait for the lightning bolt
Maybe we don't want to know That every man was bailing out On issues that they'd have no doubt With certainty, wipe from their face They did all they could to replace What it was we stood for
We wonder at the motion of the step The blow The big disgrace Now we are stocking the mold That they have made To fit like glue Can't help but think it's all our fault Can't help but wait for the lightning bolt
