Tomorrow's Not Today

We're all running just as fast as we can
To beat each other to the promised land

You make a living trying to work off your blues, while
They're spending billions just to buy and sell you your life

But the man in the back just smiles
All is well

You're holding out for the light beyond the tunnel
Pouring out your soul into a funnel
Looking around for a path to follow
You won't find it if you're looking for tomorrow
It's today, and the man in the back he just smiles

The man says this, The man says that
The man sits in the chair, then the man he gets fat

Everybody comes up and sees
Everybody comes up and says
We're gonna change it now
But today is the day

If anything you ever said was important to anyone
Wouldn't there be someone listening now

If anything you ever said made a difference to anyone
Wouldn't there be someone feeling it now

When you say that's not fair
Don't think that they care

We're all running just as fast as we can
To get a piece of anything that we can
Everybody's just trying to get by
Everybody's just trying to stay high

While the man in the back just smiles
All is well

Everybody's got to raise their voice
Everybody's got to make a choice
The man says he's got to have more worth
So we stink up the sky and we fuck up the earth.
