All God's children need travelling shoes Drive your problem from here All good people read good books Now your conscience is clear I hear you talk, girl Now your conscience is clear In the morning when I wipe my brow Wipe the miles away I like to think than I can be so willed And never do what you say I'll never hear you And never do what you say Look my eyes are just holograms Look your love has drawn red from my hands From my hands you know you'll never be More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety We just poked a little empty pie For the fun the people had at night Late at night don't need hostility The timid smile and pause to free I don't care about their different thoughts Different thoughts are good for me Up in arms and chaste and whole All God's children took their toll Look my eyes are just holograms Look your love has drawn red from my hands From my hands you know you'll never be More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety Cup of tea take time to think, yeah Time to risk a life, a life, a life Sweet and handsome, soft and porky You pig out 'til you've seen the light Pig out 'til you've seen the light Half the people read the papers Read them good and well Pretty people, nervous people People have got to sell News you have to sell Look my eyes are just holograms Look your love has drawn red from my hands From my hands you know you'll never be More than twist in my sobriety More than twist in my sobriety Look my eyes are just holograms Look your love has drawn red from my hands From my hands you know you'll never be More than twist More than twist in my sobriety

Another scorching day began to go Another senseless day is over And all the time we laughed and cried And all the time we said nothing at all At all Too many scenes I never can forget Too many dreams I never will get And all the time my life was in your hands And all the time your life was over Regeneration's burning down Regeneration's burn Regeneration's burning down Regeneration's burn Its always been impossible to know Its always been impossible to show And all the time your life was in my hands And all the time my life was over Regeneration's burning down Regeneration's burn Regeneration's burning down Regeneration's burn Its always been impossible to know Its always been impossible to show And all the time your life was in my hands And all the time my life was over
