Ghosts Tell Human Stories

We're all good, we're all bad We've all had a better time than you've ever had We're all strange, we're all scared We're all ready to go and ill-prepared We're all mind, we're all heart We're all in this together and worlds apart We're all tough, we're all talk We're all trying to run before we can walk And we think we've got it down We think we've got it down And we're one big disaster With nuclear weapons, hold for the laughter Where days move slow but the years go faster Working till we die unto the great hereafter All for a little glory That's why ghosts sit around and tell human stories We're all here, we're all now We're all a little crazy when it comes right down We're all hurt, we're all healed We're all praying that our better selves will be revealed We're all home, we're all gone And to find our way back, leave the lantern on We're all low, we're all high We're all dying to live and afraid to die And we think we've got it down We think we've got it down And we're one big disaster With nuclear weapons, hold for the laughter Where days move slow but the years go faster Working till we die unto the great hereafter All for a little glory That's why ghosts sit around and tell human stories We're all lost, we're all found We all take for granted what is still around We're all smiles, we're all tears We all miss the innocence of younger years We're all wrong, we're all right We're all living out a story on Saturday night We're all faith, we're all doubt Still trying to figure out just what this whole thing's about And we think we've got it down We think we've got it down And we're one big disaster With nuclear weapons, hold for the laughter Where days move slow but the years go faster Working till we die for the great hereafter All for a little glory That's why ghosts sit around and tell human stories That's why ghosts sit around and tell human stories That's why ghosts sit around and tell human stories That's why ghosts sit around and tell human stories
