Lyrics

[Audience Applause] [Acoustic Guitar Intro] [Verse 1] Well all the Apostles, they're sitting in swings And I'd trade off my Savior for a set of new rings And some sandals with the style of straps that cling best to the era [Verse 2] So all of the businessers in their unlimited hell Where they buy and they sell and they sell All their trash to each other But they're sick of it all And they're bankrupt on selling [Verse 3] Well all of the angels, they'd sell off your soul For a pair of new wings and anything gold They remember the people they loved, their old friends And I've seen through 'em all I've seen through 'em all And seen through most everything [Refrain] All the people you knew were the actors All them people you knew were the actors [Acoustic Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] Well, I'll go to college and I'll learn some big words And I'll talk real loud, goddamn right I'll be heard You'll remember the guy that said all those big words He must've learned in college [Outro] And it took a long time until I came clean with myself I finally come clean out of love with my lover I still love her, loved her more When she used to be sober and I was kinder [Audience Applause]
