Celebration Day

[00:15.66] Her face is cracked from smiling

[00:17.67] All the fears that she's been hiding

[00:19.67] And is seems that pretty soon, everybody's gonna know

[00:30.20] And her voice is sore from shouting

[00:32.71] Cheering winners who are losing

[00:34.22] And she wonders if their days are few

[00:36.89] and soon they'll have to go

[00:46.66] My, my, my, I'm so happy, I'm gonna join the band

[00:54.19] We're gonna dance and sing in celebration

[00:58.22] We're in the promised land

[01:00.98] She hears them talk of new ways to protect the home she lives in

[01:05.24] Then she wonders what it's all about

[01:06.99] When they break down the door

[01:16.02] Her name is Brown or White or Black, you know her very well

[01:20.28] You hear her cries of "mercy" as the winners toll the bell

[01:32.07] My, my, my, I'm so happy, I'm gonna join the band, yeah

[01:39.59] We're gonna sing and dance in celebration

[01:43.60] We're in the promised land

[02:00.80] Oh, there is a train that leaves the station

[02:03.55] Headed for your destination

[02:05.06] But the price you pay to nowhere has increased a dollar more

[02:10.57] Yes, it has

[02:15.83] And if you walk you're gonna get there

[02:17.59] Although it takes just a little longer

[02:20.10] And when you see 'em in the distance

[02:21.60] You will wring your hands and moan

[02:26.62] Oh, yeah, you'll moan

[02:35.18] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you will moan

[02:50.72] You're gone, you're gone, you're gone, yeah

[02:55.23] You're gone, yeah

[02:59.74] My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my

[03:04.63] You are gone, you are gone, my, my, yeah

[03:20.43] If you walk, you're gonna get there

[03:21.93] although it takes a little longer

[03:24.19] and when you see them in the distance

[03:25.94] you will wring your hands and moan
