Rock And A Hard Place

The fields of Eden are full of trash

If we beg and we borrow and steal, we'll never get it back

People are hungry, they crowd around

And the city gets bigger as the country comes beggin' to town

We're stuck between a rock and a hard place

Between a rock and a hard place

This talk of freedom and human rights

Means bullying and private wars are chuckin' all the dust into our eyes

A peasant people, poorer than dirt

Who are caught in the crossfire and got nothing to lose but their shirt

Stuck between a rock and a hard place

Between a rock and a hard place

You'd better stop, put on a kind face

Between a rock and a hard place

We're in the same boat

On the same sea

And we're sailing south

On the same breeze

Building dream churches

With the silver spires

And our rogue children

Play loaded dice

Between a rock and a hard place

You'd better stop

Yeah, get a load of this

Give me the truth now

Don't want no sham

I'd be hung, drawn and quartered for a sheep just as well as a lamb

Stuck between a rock and a hard place

A rock and a hard place

You'd better stop, put on a kind face

Can't you see what you've done to me?

Between a rock and a hard place (That's what I said)

Between a rock and a hard place (Yeah)

You'd better stop (Stop, yeah, you'd better stop)

Put on a kind face

Between a rock and a hard place

Between a rock and a hard place

You'd better stop, put on a kind face

You'd better stop, put on a kind face

Between a rock and a hard place

Between a rock and a hard place
