Look the Other Way
Scooter Scudieri ©89/05/07

I mailed a bullet to the president that had gone through the head of my son
Fighting side by side with Iraqis in a war that can never be won
I asked him, Mr. president are you proud of the work youve done?
I never did get a reply- just a visit from the secret service
And the FBI
I stood before madam speaker and poured out the contents of my heart
I asked her if her grandchildren would fight in the war she helped start
I never did get an answer, but I could tell by the way she stood
Maybe she wouldnt look the other way - maybe this one could do some good
I know your limitations
Religious persecution
10,000 lavender condos
Across the horizon

Too many mouths to feed
Nobody bothers me
You gotta love that hate mentality
Didnt hear the girl screaming

Here we are in the room were dancing
Outside people dying
I cant hear what youre saying
You dont see me crying

Look the other way
Look the other way
Look the other way
Look the other way

Lover incubate disease
Sex or prayer
Get on your knees
Weave into your little self
Corrupt the life of someone else

Here we are in the room were dancing
Outside people dying
I cant hear what youre saying
You dont see me crying

Look the other way
Look the other way
Look the other way
Look the other way
