Jewel - Stand
Walk in a corner shop
See a shoplifting cop
See the old lady with a gun
See the hero try 2 run
Nothing"s what it seems, I mean
It"s not all dirty, but it"s not all clean
There"s children paying bills
There"s monks buying thrills
There"s pride for sale in magazines
There"s pills for rent 2 make u clean
Marvin Gaye, there"s no brother, brother
Woody Guthrie"s land can"t feed Mother
CHORUS
Mothers weep, children sleep
So much violence ends in silence
It"s a shame there"s no one 2 blame
For all the pain that life brings
If u will just take me It might just complete me
And together we can make a stand
A waitress brings me lunch
We meet but do not touch
On TV, D.C. is selling lies
While in
