Still I admit that I didn't say nothing
They sat there, they sat there watching the sun
Gonna, gonna give it back, an' I'm gonna do something
Everyone was dancing, I stood over in the corner
I saw it float away, then I watched the buildings crumble
Don't say nothin'
I saw an' no one seemed to mind
Oh my brain I got to complain
I walked the floor, then I looked away
How long, how long will we make do?
I saw it floating in the river
Got to, got to face the fact, that I didn't say nothing
Lower the thing, is left like that
Spread its wings an' fly away
Went to the party, very discouraged
I looked at the river, just couldn't forgive it
Maybe it's time to break on through
This band, aah, they were sayin' this and sayin' that an'
Like dust in the hand an' we watched the sun
Gonna, gonna get well, I'm gonna do something
Got to face the fact, that I didn't say nothing
Was, it was ladened with all kinds of shit
Don't say nothin'
How long, how long, will we make do?
I watched the litter, pile like a wall
Nothin', nothin' good was comin', I just saw, I just stood there
Gonna, gonna, gonna straighten up
Putting this one down an' but nothin' was delivered
And in the mountains, a cry echoes
Won't hold the card, well, I'm gonna do something
Don't say nothin'
I couldn't believe it but I couldn't say nothin'
Won't hold my tongue, won't hold the thought
And you set, set it, said it, said nothin'
Well, you can complain, but I'm gonna do something
Maybe it's time to break on through
I'll give it back, gonna face the fact
I turned my back, walked away
Out in the desert, oh I saw, saw that ol' cat skinned
