Penny for your problems a dollar for your dreams
He said I'll give you hundred fifty if you let me make you scream
You've got to watch yourself
Kain and Abel were sitting on a stone
Kain said would it be a sin to say I'll always walk alone
He said no
You've only got yourself
You had your savior but you loved him to death
And they could all smell the liquor on Jesus' breath
He'd tell you all about his fortune and fame
He'd say be careful with that knife while you're carving out your name
You want the answers why you listening to me
I'm still watchin black & white movies on my colour tv
This place don't make a lotta sense to me anyhow
Oh, you're gonna get down
You gotta get down
Sometimes you're gonna get down
There was a miracle on Sunday but the people never came
They were gathered round the television watching people ruin fame
Cause everybody wants to love someone
So a penny for your problems a dollar for your dreams
The sound of our destruction serves to suffocate the screams
So raise your children well
They'll need to pray like hell
Oh, you're gonna get down
You gotta get down
Sometimes you're gonna get down
