Like preachers saying grace to their congregation (01.03.2010) I saw a man in the street, He had words, he had to preach But we just walk on by. Maybe we should stop and listen Maybe he has words of wisdom. We pretend to agree with the suit-wearing freaks. Maybe all he needs is a suit and a briefcase to make you stop. Don’t let them make you stop living.
