Kids in the Square

[Verse 1]
If you got a pretty good idea of what you're lookin' for
Then you got a pretty good idea of what you find
You don't have to go so very far these days
To find yourself a made-up mind
Oh, the man-made man is driving big shiny wheels
Way too fast down a rainy stretch of road
You know the story, you know how this turns out
Wheels up in the dark and cold
Ah, wheels up in the dark and cold

[Chorus]
But those kids down in the square
Are dancing like they just don't care
I think they know it all washes away
In the morning rain
In the morning rain

[Verse 2]
So we can ride for a while on this big blue wave
Of plastic and petroleum and sodium light
But chickens runnin' circles, the circles are gettin' smaller
And the fox is in the town tonight
The fox is on the town tonight

[Chorus]
But those kids down in the square
Are dancing like they just don't care
Maybe they know it all washes away
In the morning rain
In the morning rain

[Bridge]
Mmmmmmmmm
Mmmmmmmmm

[Verse 3]
Oh, Jesus, Billy Butler, things sure do fall apart
If you could only see that rough beast slouchin' now
Because our middle has no center, our up has got no down
Because we ain't got no brains, know how
All the rifles got no safety and the barn has got no door
And the old man has got no coat for when it snows
And that has got no this and this has got no that
And the emperor has got no clothes
The emperor has got no clothes

[Chorus]
But those kids down in the square
Still dancing like they just don't care
Maybe they know it all washes away
In the morning rain
Oh, those kids out in the streets
They raise up their hands, they keep moving their feet
I think they know it all washes away
In the morning rain
In the morning rain
