cow people - the homeless gospel choir lyrics

verse 1:
how long has it felt like everything is changing, and it’s hard to know if you can take a break?
fill up your lungs with a breath of fresh air, while the fresh air is still free to take
i ain’t a train hopper, i never was
it just sounded so much better than riding on a bus
i used to talk to jesus on a one*way phone line
but i got tired of pretending i wasn’t wasting my time

chorus:
glory, hallelujah
are you having fun yet?
are you too busy pretending like we never met?
i’ve done some pretending, oh, of my own
that’s why us cow people sing our songs all alone

verse 2:
the gophers in the city eat just like a king
‘cause you can’t shoot your rifle under the city’s wing
there ain’t no jobs coming back to these friendly shores
‘cause no one pays full price
when you can get half off for more

chorus:
glory, hallelujah
have you gotten your fill?
we can fix any problem as long as you foot the bill
just don’t show your soft side, whatever you do
‘cause they’ll nail you to a cross called “we’re tired of you”
verse 3:
and you wish that you were better at playing guitar
but it’s hard to sit still the older i get
and you don’t want to practice, you get stoned instead
the saddest songs are sadder when the singer is dead

chorus:
glory, hallelujah
i’m biding my time and trying to be honest about my slice of life
have you ever wanted something different than you got?
then don’t wait for no one when you’ve got a clear shot
it’s hard to think of something that’s shiny and new
when everything’s a sales pitch and pointed at you

outro:
don’t you dare compare yourself to anyone but you
i might not know what’s coming
but that’s nothing new
