Promised Land

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Tell your sons and your daughters we'll reach the promised land Tell your sons and your daughters we've got the keys in hand That's what we taught her, it's all just chemistry, bottled up pure energy Tell your sons and daughters that nothing's permanent And we'll flow like water 'til our bodies are spent Oh no [Verse 2] Tell your sons and your daughters we're not gonna sleep at night Tell your sons and your daughters we'll walk 'til we see the light But what we taught her is that it's all just rocketry Try it, swallow once and you'll see Tell your sons and daughters they'll wake up better for it Long as we march, whether it's clear or it's pouring [Chorus] So walk, pausing to rest is boring We don't talk Gone cause it's the best when you're ignoring Everyone halting to rest is boring We don't stop 'Cause it's the best to go exploring Walk on, pausing to rest is boring We don't talk Gone cause it's the best when you're ignoring Everyone halting to rest is boring We don't stop cause it's the best to go exploring (Ba-ba, ba-ba da-da-da, ba-ba ba, da-da-da-da-da) (Ba-ba, ba-ba da-da-da, ba-ba ba, da-da-da-da-da) [Verse 3] Tell your sons and your daughters we've got no time to waste Tell your sons and your daughters come along, pick up the pace It's getting harder They don't know what high is yet How detached do you think we can get? Now your sons and daughters know nothings permanent And we'll duck and cover once our supply is spent, oh no Fuck [Saxophone Solo] [Chorus] (Ba-ba, ba-ba da-da-da, ba-ba ba, da-da-da-da-da) (Ba-ba, ba-ba da-da-da, ba-ba ba, da-da-da-da-da) Walk on, pausing to rest is boring We don't talk Gone cause it's the best when you're ignoring Everyone walking confess you're snoring So let's stop, mark where you dropped and go exploring Walk on, pausing to rest is boring We don't talk Gone cause it's the best when you're ignoring Everyone halting to rest is boring We don't stop cause it's the best to go exploring
