'momma time'... mattbear

'momma time'
get up, stand up like it's '68 or '69
kick your tv's in - it's all just make believe and lies.
there's a man behind the news desk, he just sold his soul to sell you lies.
got a handful of sleepin' pills and tv stills for me and momma time.
me and momma time.

they killed bobby kennedy for messin' with the rich white way it is.
they murdered martin luther king for tellin' us what's his is his... it is.
there's a teacher in a yellow dress with thoughts suppressed; she tries to sell me mine.
well, the truth is hidden from the rest, but not from me and momma time.
me and momma time.
me and momma time.

creative extremists raise your voices, raise the hair upon their necks.
uncle sam wants you to shut up, sit down; i ain't waitin' around to see what he does next.

there's a world of possibilities that we won't see if you just stay in line.
the truth will set you free from history.
it's you and me and momma time.
me and momma time.
me and momma time.
