Turn This Thing Around

When the big man brings the hammer down
You’ve gotta’ dig your heels into the ground
Show ‘em what you’re worth, show ‘em what you’re worth

But when the conversation in your heart
Makes you question everything you are
How much can it take before it starts to break?

All they want is all you’ve got and all you need is love
Teach yourself to share the wealth and you’ll always have enough

I still believe that we can turn this thing around,
That we can find some common ground where we can stand
It’s not enough to sit and talk about love
You gotta’ get some dirt on your hands

If we keep on choosing not to think
‘Bout the “who’s” and “what’s” and “why’s” behind the scenes
How’re we gonna’ tell what’s heaven and what’s hell?

They may not put your name in lights
But if it helps you sleep at night
