On the sidewalk I'm rolling to places Uninviting, the looks on the faces Sir, do you have the time? In the city I'm sighing at buildings Such a fine mess inside where they pull strings You rise up to stand in line It seems we've found a way To stick around and waste our days And all the while the hours slip away And there it goes, just another day In the morning I'm staring at gray skies There's a baby who slept while her mom cried It's such a small mouth to feed Why don't she have nothing to eat? In the evening I'm dreaming of nations Done with financing military stations One word could fill those needs
It's called peace There it goes, just another day One more day There it goes, just another day One more day One more day that we could change One more day One more day to rearrange But there it goes, just another day We want to win But these streets were paved with the blood of our sins The business man grins, looks around He sees buildings all around now (on the ground now) And a hand outstretched for change And though it may soon start to rain There is still a face that asks me to try While the baby cries, the mother simply sighs If change is on its way, what's the problem with today?
