lyrics

QUESTION OF HOW

She said "You'll have a good life"
I said "You'll have a good day"
I've done my time in the shade
Must seek alternative ways
Three hundred thousand in cash
She told me "Take it and leave"
It brings me out in a rash
But there's a remedy

I'm stoned - you're drinking
I know - just what you're thinking

It's not a question of where - just a matter of when
It's not a question of who - it's just a matter of them
Is this property yours? I could've sworn it was mine
I'm beginning to doubt you all the time

You wanted to know - I'm doing fine
Avoiding the flow - most of the time
You're talking too much - I don't agree
There's never enough of this equality

It's just a question of how

Everything can be, will be, should be
Everything must be left in place by now
It's just a question of how
Anything can be, will be, should be
Everything must be left in place by now
It's just a question of how

I'll decide when the time is right
I'm locked and ready to go
I'm locked and ready to go

They wanna see me again
Better see what they got
First they're taking the blame
Now they're taking the lot
They can show me the way
And I can show them the door
Get a reason to love this life some more

It's not a question of who, it's just a question of you
And you've got blood on your hands and I got soles on my shoes
It's a ridiculous lie to think that I'd never stay
I'm only 24 hours away

Selling the past to pay for the future
Do what you're told but only if it suits you
