Lyrics
Hard Roll
Boys it’s been a hard roll, where do I begin?
Some say back in the garden with original sin
They say salvation can’t be found in the flesh
But making love is nothing if it’s not being blessed
Somewhere along the way boys we broke up into tribes
Tamed a few animals, planted crops then came the scribes
Armies, priests and kings they all started making waves
From then ‘til now we fight to see who’ll rule the day
But let’s leave the night for lovers
If we just leave the night for lovers
Living in the dark wouldn’t feel all that bad
Boys it's been a hard roll where do I begin?
With the help of the church one god killed the pantheon
In the age of enlightenment he himself became a sin
Now facts and opinions get importantly fed
But you can’t really eat them just stuff ‘em in your head
Boys it’s been a hard roll where do I begin
In the age of information don’t forget your pen
Machines and science hum for knowledge’s sake
They’re the new gods, we hope they’ll carry the day
But let’s leave the night for lovers
If we just leave the night for lovers
Living in the dark wouldn’t feel all that bad
Boys it’s been a hard roll where do I begin
It might be easier if more often the good guys win
When the fabric of our lives is stretched until it rips
The language of drastic change always is apocalypse
Boys it’s been a hard roll where do I begin
We wait for the maid to clean up so we get dirty again
One man’s pleasure draws another man’s disdain
Everyday it seems leaves another stain.
But let’s leave the night for lovers
If we just leave the night for lovers
Living in the dark wouldn’t feel all that bad
