Lyrics
The Street Sage
Written by: Marlow
Slow the progression, slow the radio. We are living in a one way street, nonstop.
The street sage walks by talking to all. A group gathers to hear, his wisdom.
And they ask him about politics, about the economy, about our kids;
About this fast-paced world that?s about to turn around, and away we go.
Yeah Yeah, Yeah Yeah ?Watch our for that new generation
The informed generation? (that new generation)
The tech-savvy generation? (that new generation)
The post-oil generation... (that new generation)
It?s always more complicated then it seems, yet is so easy to criticize.
The street sage sings better yourselves ? politics reflects the love we lack.
Listen, he said, ?We all have faults to mend.?
But don?t try to gain the world, you?ll get shot? Live smart to live long?
-CHORUS-
The life we lead is hectic, no doubt. But tomorrow will be just fine. X2
There?s a difference between right and wrong, once you differentiate the two;
People will truly love you.
The street sage walks by, ?Where are you going,? he is asked.
?Man, if I knew that, I wouldn?t be here? I?d be closer to there.?
-CHORUS-
The life we lead is hectic, no doubt. But tomorrow will be just fine. X2
