It's A Long Way To The Promised Land
Bad Religion

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)
