Tally Hall – & (ampersand) lyrics

Love of the son

[Verse 1]
Came back again
To make it clear that
He never said it would meet demand
Shame on a martyr
Claiming friends from
Either perspective of &

[Chorus 1]
Weak & Strong &
Wet & Dry &
Right & Wrong &
Live & Die &
Sane & Gone &
Love & Not &
All the &s that we forgot so

[Verse 2]
Sing while you hear it
Don't deny it
Leave if you can't stand the thought of it
Come back again
To make things stand
With no disrespect to the &

[Chorus 2]
High & Low &
New & Old &
Stop & Go &
Hot & Cold &
John & Yoko
Dark & Light
It's almost time to say goodnight to it

[Verse 3]

Their lives stuck beside every &

[Chorus 3]
Words & Numbers &
Sound & Silence
Stop the peace &
Keep the violence
No & Yes &
We digress
It lives with sad & happiness
Oh God

Big bad Betty of the 'pocalypse
She opens her lips & it goes like this
When the golden rule & the jungle meet
There'll be nothing to love &
There'll be no one to beat
Oh the things we know
The things we don't
The things we think we can will & won't
We're loath to gather that nothing's left
We're all together & we're all bereft
Capitalists & communists
You did the hokey-pokey & it went like this
You hate each other & you love yourselves
It might be heaven & it might be hell
Oh the things we do
The things we say
Oh the things we wish we could wash away
