Mr. Richards

[00:05.64] Mr. Richards, your position
[00:08.93] Is a messenger pigeon
[00:11.79] Left behind you when the camp moved on
[00:18.89] We thought that you would listen
[00:21.69] But the words had never crystallized
[00:24.86] Into a truth that you might own, hey hey
[00:32.46] Mr. Richards, your decision
[00:35.23] Pay attention, pay attention
[00:43.64] Mr. Richards, you're forgiven
[00:46.34] For a narrow lack of vision
[00:49.42] But the fire's are still raging on
[00:56.67] The public's got opinions
[00:59.28] And these consequences border on
[01:02.60] The compound that you raised will sell it see, hey hey
[01:10.04] Mr. Richards, your decision
[01:12.70] Pay attention, pay attention
[01:20.58] So listen, your intention
[01:23.86] Sign the papers, stamp the ribbon
[01:26.77] You're mistaken if you think we'll just forget
[01:33.37] You can thump your chest and rattle
[01:35.33] Stand in front of your piano
[01:39.10] But we know what's going on
[01:45.93] Yes, we know what's going on
[01:52.50] We're the children of the choir, hey
[01:58.62] And we know what's going on
[02:07.13] Mr. Richards, your conviction
[02:10.15] Had us cheering in the kitchen
[02:13.45] Now the jury's eating pigeon pie
[02:20.31] So tell me how is prison
[02:23.16] Have they taught you how to listen?
[02:25.78] We've begun to bridge the schism
[02:28.96] Pay attention, pay attention
[02:32.79] Mr. Richards, your decision
[02:35.67] Pay attention, pay attention
[02:44.55] You can thump your chest and rattle
[02:46.78] Stand in front of your piano
[02:51.44] But we know what's going on
[02:57.72] Yes, we know what's going on
[03:03.12] We're the children of the choir, hey
[03:09.48] From the compound fire, hey
[03:16.67] And we know what's going on
[03:22.54] Yes, we know what's going on
[03:31.46]
