Your buddy Sam's a bit confused But he don't know what to do Getting tired of hearing your demands He's got the whole world in his hands
And you can drive the outside lane Last car on the gravy train You can scream and you can moan But you can't get blood from a stone
I'm working hard to pay the rent And support my government Built the highways and the railroad tracks Now we're not giving up 'til they give it all back
You can laugh but it's no joke Gotta fix the thing that's broke There's no meat only bone And you can't get blood from a stone
They say strength and fortitude Keeps a man from gettin' screwed The future raises so many doubts You put it in but you can't get it out
A black hole in a bottomless pit I'm gettin' tired of all this bullshit You can drive the outside lane Last car on the gravy train
You can write you can call on the phone You can knock but there's nobody home I could scream and I might moan But you can't get blood from a stone
No you can't get blood from a stone
No you can't get Can't get Can't get Can't get blood from a stone (repeat)
No you can't No you can't No you can't No you can't get blood from a stone (repeat and fade)
