Who Will Save Your Soul (Live 2 Meter Sessions At VARA Studio, Netherlands – October 16, 1996)

[Verse 1]
People livin' their lives for you on TV
They say they're better and you agree
She says, "Hold my calls from behind those cold brick walls"
Says, "Come here, boy, there's nothing for free"
Another burger, 'nother hotdog, some fries
You wish in the well, hope your health don't go to hell
Well, another doctor's bill, a lawyer's bill, another cute cheap thrill
You know you love him if you put him in your will, but

[Chorus]
Who will save your souls when it comes to the flower?
Who, who will save your souls after those liеs that you told, boy? Uh
And who will save your souls if you won't save your own?
La dee-dee-da, dee-da, dee-da-da, la-da-da

[Verse 2]
We try to hustlе 'em, try to bustle 'em, try to cuss 'em
And the cops want someone to bust down on Orleans Avenue
Another day, another dollar, another war
Another tower went up where the homeless had their homes
So we pray to as many different gods as there are flowers
But we call religion our friend, uh
We're so worried about saving our souls
Afraid that God will take His toll that we forget to begin, but, uh

[Chorus]
Who will save your souls when it comes to the flower?
Who, who will save your souls after all those lies that you told, boy? Uh
And who will save your souls if you won't save your own?
La dee-dee-da, dee-da, dee-da-da, la-da-da

[Verse 3]
'Cause some are walking, some are talking, some are stalking their kill
Got social security but that don't pay your bills
There's addictions to feed and there are mouths to pay
So you bargain with the devil, but you're okay for today
Say that you love them, take their money and run
It's been swell, sweetheart, but it was just one of those things
Those flings, those strings you've gotta cut
So get out on the streets, girl, and bust your butts

[Chorus]
Who will save-ave your soul when it comes to the babies?
Oh, who, who will save your soul after those lies that you told, boy? Uh, mm
And who will save-ave your soul if you won't save your own?
