Lyrics:

Blue Sky

Verse 1
They build the weapons
They plan the wars
Outsource the jobs
Lock all the doors
Men in high places
Tell citizens
"Corporations are
people my friend"

Chorus
I've never seen one laugh or cry
Never kiss their kids goodbye
Never stay up all night
To stare at a blue sky
Stare at a blue sky

Verse 2
They own the houses
They own the land
Have politicians
At their command
They run the TV
Radio too
They make disasters
Sell you the news

Verse 3
We don't have money
We don't have guns
Offshore accounts or
Mutual funds
From the suburbs
To trailer parks
We've got each other
and that's a start

Chorus
We are people who laugh and cry
Always kiss our kids goodbye
We will stand here all night
To stare at a blue sky
Stare at a blue sky
Stare at a blue sky
Stare at a blue sky
