Lyrics

That ivory tower′s looking tattered and tired 'round the eyes Ain′t getting much sleep at night My daddy told me, "politicians never learn the golden rule Do unto others, as you'd have them do to you" You go 'round and around it You go over and under But I go through Food on the table, running car, and tuck my kids in at night The American dream in real life My mom′s an angel, cigarette smoke like a halo ′round her hair Sun is shining right behind her standing there You go 'round and around it You go over and under But I go through You go ′round and around it You go over and under But I go through You break my lеgs, then make me walk You sеal my lips, then demand I talk You blind my eyes, then ask me if I like what you drew Yeah, you do You go 'round and around it You go over and under But I go through My kid, he asked me, "daddy, when you coming home to me from work?" If I′m being honest, man, that hurt So I go 'round and around it And I go over and under But he goes through You break my legs, then make me walk You seal my lips, and demand I talk You blind my eyes, then ask me if I like what you drew Yes, you do You go ′round and around it Over and under But I go through I go 'round and around it I go over and under But she goes through We go 'round and around it Over and under But we go through
