Long In The Years
Music and Lyrics by Richard W. Teague
Red lights a flashing the camera turns on
Big Brother's watching, he slipped into your homes
Terror creeps in from who it's so unclear
Gotta make a change the people wait in fear
Politicians talking their words come and go
One side or the other no middle of the road
Time ticks away the answer is clear
Gotta take a stand cause we're long in the years
Drug Lords with armies, the C.I.A.
Need more money to play the games they play
Misery on the people with no morals here
Greed and coruption does cause all the fear
All the world's leaders hide behind their walls
They've shut their ears to the dying peoples call
Don't want no more, the time it is here
Gotta make a stand, cause we're long in the years
Red lights a flashing the warnings begun
Poor people leaving, they've got 'em on the run
Times are a changing, the people stand in fear
Gotta make a change cause we're long in the years
Tent cities here, tent cities there
People need to work, what it is they don't care
Time ticks away, the answer is clear
Gotta change the plan cause we're long in the years
Bailouts for this, bailouts for that
Taxman at the door, the working man pays it back
Blood from a turnip, you can't get it here
Time to change it all, time to make it clear
Religions of man, the whole moral scene
Can save your soul, but you have to pay the green
Time slips away, I say this so sincere
Can't take no more, cause I'm long in the years
