Old Soul Song (For the New World Order)

Grey like new day leaks through the window

And some old song comes on the alarm clock radio

We walk the forty blocks to the middle

Of the place we heard that everything would be

And there were barricades to keep us off the street

But the crowd kept pushing forward

Till they swallowed the police

Yeah, they went wild, yeah, they went wild

Yeah, they went wild, yeah, they went wild

We left before the dust had time to settle

And all the broken glass swept off the avenue

And all the way home held your camera like a Bible

Just wishing so bad that it held some kind of truth

And I stood nervous next to you in the dark room

You dropped the paper in my water

And it all begins to bloom

Yeah, they go wild, yeah, they go wild

Yeah, they go wild, yeah, they go wild

And just when I get so lonesome I can't speak

I see some flowers on a hill side

Like a wall of new TV's

Yeah, they go wild, yeah, they go wild

Yeah, they go wild, yeah, they go wild

Yeah, they go wild, yeah, they go wild

Yeah, they go wild, yeah, they go wild
