Pay for the sign on the hill that says 'you're home' Pay for the hole in the ground to place your bones Pay for the words in your mouth to flow Pay for the soles of your shoes to walk the streets of kings Pay for the simplest things
Pay for the food on your plate to live Pay for the mood in your mind to give a thought disguised Pay for the simplest things
Who turned Who turned the light out Who turned Who turned away
One hundred million Fences around us Can we own everything Including the moon and the sun and the stars?
Pay for the whip on your back to break Pay for the chain on your neck to control your life Pay for everything
