Living in a town
Where only white people live
What does it do to your heart?
Living in a town
Where mostly rich people live
What does it do to your heart?
Reading the news
Without knowing what to do
What does it do to your heart?
Hearing the voice of God
And remaining as you were
What does it do to your heart?

Dark was the night
Cold was the ground
I once was lost
But now I'm just wandering around
It seems so long
Since I met anyone
Who really seemed to
Care about anything
So here I sit
Swallowed by my skepticism
Tightening my first
Watching too much television
But you gotta shine your shoes
For the fat lady
You gotta shine your shoes
Every day
You gotta shine your shoes
For the fat lady
That's what I heard my brother say
I've been fumbling my faith
Like an egg on a spoon
In a summer party race
In the hottest day of June
And I'm all over the place
I'm all over the place
I'm all over the place
And I think I spoke too soon
But you gotta shine your shoes
For the fat lady
You gotta shine your shoes
Every day
You gotta shine your shoes
For the fat lady
That's what I heard my brother say

Echoes of a Brighter Day

Baby girl
Born into dark times
People with dark minds
Always running their mouths
Is it right
To shield you from it?
Shelter you from pain
And if so, for how long?
The echoes
Of a brighter day
Can be heard always
In the cooing of infants
