Verse 1
And when the clock strikes 12
tell me where you gonna be?
Cleaning up the mess we've
made or watching your T-V?
And if you have to ask
then you don't have a clue
There's snow in Arizona
while they're bombing in Beirut!
Refrain
I hope some day
when i'm dead and gone
We learn to right
everything that's wrong
With loving hands
turn sick to strong
Our time will tell if life
goes on on on on on
Chorus 1
When the storm hits your front door
with a roar you can't ignore
You run run away! but there's
no place to hide mate!
When the days turn into night
you don't got no chance to fight
Cause you're too late! so
kiss your ass goodbye mate!
Post Chorus: Em--D- x4
Verse 2
It just don't make no sense
there's a million mouthes to feed
We got military action over monetary need
And you can turn your back
or you can plant the seed
You can choose compassion
over universal greed
(Repeat Refrain)
Chorus 2
When the storm hits your front door
with a roar you can't ignore
You run run away! but there's
no place to hide mate!
When the days turn into night
you don't got no chance to fight
Cause you're too late! so
kiss your ass goodbye mate!
(Repeat Chorus 1)
Breakdown
Bridge
And you can turn your back
but it won't go away
And you don't look scared
but you should be afraid
You can shut your mouth
but you still have a say
But you just don't care
for tomorrow today
(Repeat)
Well no way! way! No way
no way no way no way!
Chorus 3
When the storm hits your front door
with a roar you can't ignore
You run run away! but there's
no place to hide mate!
When the days turn into night
you don't got no chance to fight
Cause you're too late! so
kiss your ass goodbye mate!
(Repeat Chorus 2)
