It's not a crime to be innocent, these things we have not done
But you're not some little child, spring is past and gone
Well I know my craving heart and I've seen your vicious eyes
And I think we know the truth, both you and I
Don't flutter your lashes like a little girl
And ask me why it's such a cruel, cruel world, no
Chorus:
Don't ask any more stupid questions
You already know the answers to
Well you can kill with the best of them but your smile remains so sweet
When someone comes to eat me alive, I like to see their teeth
If you really want I can name the names
Be an angel of death at the children's games, so
Chorus:
Don't ask any more stupid questions
You already know the answers to - I know that you do
There comes a time in your life you've got to grow up fast
And I think that your time is coming now here at last
It's not a crime to be innocent , these things we have not done
But you cannot run forever, spring is past and gone
Waiting in line at the fortune teller
Waiting to hear some more pretty lies, he says
Chorus:
Don't ask any more stupid questions
You already know the answers to . . .Verse 1:
At my house I've got no shackles
You can come and look if you want to
In the halls you'll see the mantles
Where the light shines dim all around you
And the streets are paved with gold and if
Someone asks you, you can call my name
Verse 2:
You are just a thought that someone
Somewhere somehow feels you should be here
And it's so for real to touch
To smell, to feel, to know where you are here
And the streets are paved with gold and if
Someone asks you, you can call my name
You can call my name
I hear you calling my name yeah all right now
Verse 3:
By the time that I'm through singing
The bells from the schools of wars will be ringing
More confusions, blood transfusions
The news today will be the movies for tomorrow
And the water's turned to blood, and if
You don't think so
Go turn on your tub
And it it's mixed with mud
You'll see it turn to gray
And you can call my name
I hear you call my name
