Where Are We (And Where Do We Belong)


Down at the bar the salesman speaks to his whiskey
About his latest blown deal
The bartender puts on a show for broken hearts
Wondering if all sad tales are real

But a smoke cloud fills the room
The sad clown adds to the gloom
The overdue singer sings his song
Each one wondering where do they belong

Outside an angry mime is shouting
The deaf poet stole his words
His lawyer doesn’t care if he is guilty
He just demands to paid at least one third

But a fog covers the moon
The shoeless gypsy adds to the gloom
The homeless priest tells right from wrong
Each one wondering where do they belong

The famous hobo weaves his horror epic tale
Also called his childhood
The fortune teller and her dancing monkey
Con people just for food

But the rich man leaves too soon
Their hunger adds to the gloom
The future promises it won’t be long
Each one wondering where do they belong

On a park bench sits the stoned philosopher
As he argues if he himself is really real
While the sword swallower and the flame thrower split a meal
Whatever the thief, their manager could steal

But over their heads a storm does loom
The drone of thunder adds to the gloom
Without question time moves along
Each one wondering where do they belong

The corner peddler is being liquidated
He holds a sign saying “Even I too must go”
The street magician wishes to make himself disappear
He steps to the other side of the road

But he too will find his doom
Perhaps in the dark corner of his room
For the times you spoke to soon
Waiting for the chance to right your wrongs
While the road of life is long
Each one wondering where do they belong

I like this tune alot more.. Very good lyrics, and the chorus progression is a nice relief. Sometimes the lyrics dont flow and there is awkward moments where you try to cram words in. Dont have too much to say about this one, awesome song, thanks for posting.
