Patti Smith - Gung Ho Lyrics
Patti Smith - Boy Cried Wolf Lyrics
Ooo ooo
Ohh the story's told been told, retold
From the secret scriptures to the tabloids
Patti Smith - Strange Messengers Lyrics
I looked upon the book of life
Tracing the lines of face after face
Looking down at their naked feet
Bound in chains bound in chains
Patti Smith - Persuasion Lyrics
What is the system that gets around?
Recruits hearts with its timeless rhythm
The young glow but old men know
It's all a part of some crazy schism
Patti Smith - One Voice Lyrics
In the garden of consciousness
Lies in fertile mind, the dormant seed
Blooming into charity
Conscience breathes a sigh of relief
Patti Smith - New Party Lyrics
You say, hey
The state of the union
Is fine, fine, fine, fine, fine
I got the feelin' that you're
Patti Smith - Gung Ho Lyrics
On a field of red one gold star
Raised above his head
Raised above his head
He was not like any other
Patti Smith - Grateful Lyrics
Ours is just another skin
Simply slips away
You can rise above it
It will shed easily
Patti Smith - Gone Pie Lyrics
Hey there
Come and take a walk with me
Stroll into infinity
We'll stroll along until the dawn is gone
Patti Smith - China Bird Lyrics
One fine day these words I pray
Will breathe a truth
Within yourself upon a shelf
A life anew
Patti Smith - Upright Come Lyrics
Hail brother
The distant thunder
Is nothing but hearts
Beating as one
