People living their lives for you on TV
They say they're better than you and you agree
This is home, my calls from behind those calls
Your boss says 'Come here boy, there ain't nothing for free'
Another doctor's bill, a lawyer's bill, another cute cheap thrill
You know you love him if you put him in your will but

Who will save your souls when it comes to the flowers now
[00:39]Who will save your souls after all the lies that you told, boy
[00:46]Who will save your souls if you won't save your own?

[01:01]We try to hustle them, try to bustle them, try to cuss them
[01:04]The cops want someone to bust down on Orleans Avenue
[01:08]Another day, another dollar, another war, another tower
[01:12]Went up to where the homeless had their homes
[01:16]So we pray to as many different gods are there are flowers
[01:21]But we call religion our friend
[01:24]We're so worried about saving our souls
[01:27]Afraid that God will take His toll that we forget to begin but

[01:32]Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now
[01:39]Who will save your souls after all the lies that you told, boy
[01:47]Who will save your souls if you won't save your own?

[02:09]Some are walking, some are talking, some are stalking their kill
[02:13]Got social security, but it doesn't pay your bills
[02:16]There are addictions to feed and there are mouths to pay
[02:19]So you bargain with the Devil, say you're o.k. for today
[02:24]You say that you love them, take their money and run
[02:27]Say, it's been swell, sweetheart, but it was just one of those things
[02:32]Those flings, those strings you've got to cut
[02:35]So get out on the streets, girls, and bust your butts

Who will save your soul when it comes to the flowers now
Who will save your souls after all the lies that you told, boy
Who will save your souls if you won't save your own?
