It's a long way to the promised land
So you'd better well know your way
There's a ship on the ocean
And an albatross who is trying to lead you astray
Leaders, politicians and power whores
Are in line to receive your choice
You bet your ass, if you give it to them
They will gladly take your voice
And it's a long way to the promised land
(Woah, woah, woah oh, oh, oh)
It's a long way to the promised land
(Woah, woah, woah oh oh oh)
It's a long way to the promised land
If we work we might find it here
There's no substitute for enlightenment
There's no reason for bridled fear
When you join the people who've joined the club
You gotta clench and play your hand
'Cuz if you fall in line you're gonna fall in time
And you'll never make a stand
And it's a long way to the promised land
(Woah, woah, woah oh, oh, oh)
It's a long way to the promised land
(Woah, woah, woah oh, oh, oh)
What are you going to do
When they call for you?
Bend and capitulate?
Or keep your head on straight?
Easy answers bought without experience
Is gonna lead you to certain doom
Because the truth is just what you make of it
It begins and ends with you
It's a long way to the promised land
(Woah, woah, woah oh, oh, oh)
It's a long way to the promised land
(Woah, woah, woah oh, oh, oh)
When you join the people who joined the club
(It's a long way to the promised land)
You gotta clench and play your hand
(It's a long way to the promised land)
Because the truth is just what you make of it
(It's a long way to the promised land, it's a long way)
