music and performance sonya heller
lyric bill white

lyrics

we did as we were told
pouring ouselves into their mold
and climbed the liquid ladder
through the clutter and the clatter
grabbing at the passing ring
but they never intended
to cut us in on anything

they revised our stories
and redacted all our songs
it never was an issue
of the right against the wrong
they tore down our houses
and wiped the city clean
and never intended
to cut us in on anything

when our movements were restricted
they bombed the streets we used to walk
demolishing bars and coffeeshops
where once we danced and talked
miles of empty towers
operated by machines
never was it their intention
to cut us in on anything

we did as we were told
pouring ouselves into their mold
and climbed the liquid ladder
through the clutter and the clatter
grabbing at the passing ring
but they never intended
to cut us in on anything
