Replacements - We'll Inherit The Earth Lyrics
Shocking how nothing shocks anymore,The message read as it washed ashoreSkies turn black as my eyes look downWritten on the back are these words Ive found:Well inherit the earth but we dont want itIts been ours since birth, whatcha doin on it?Well inherit the earth but we dont want itLayin claim at birth, whatcha doin on it?Waterfalls of grain flow through our handsWere too weak to stand and too weak to strayBig trees sway and the air is stillLovers climb at the top of a hill and sayWell inherit the earth but we dont want itIts been ours since birth, whatcha doin on it?Well inherit the earth but we dont want itLaid our claim at birth, whatcha doin on it?We watch the world from the padded cellAnd our eyes scream what our lips must quellOh, well...{Ive been told that the light shines darkness}{...it aint quite the same}{the dark gales} {if I was off the wall then its you I bring}{remains} {theyre all frustration whales}Last bundle of twigs grew strong and youngWe cant hold our tongues at the top of our lungsWell inherit the earth but dont tell anybodyIts been ours since birth, and its ours alreadyWell inherit the earth but dont tell anybodyIts been ours since birth, and its ours alreadyWell inherit the earth but dont tell anybodyDont tell a soul{mumble}I got my hands in my pockets and Im waiting for the day to come(inherit the earthInherit the earth...)
