Beautiful People Lyrics

If beauty is an ecstasy and anger keeps you poorA hungry man is never free, a rich man never curedThings were never what they used to beNow every crowd has its silver lining, we all got stuff to sellAnd you may live your life so bitter, but you remember it so wellThings were never what they used to beFor all the folks who can run the world, drive cabs or cut your hairAnd the sun may set without your help, but you?re beautiful people to meYou may fall before you?re pushed, but it?s beautiful people I seeIf you only see the stars when it?s dark,t hat?s enough for meAn empty soul with a full opinion is beautiful people to meIt?s all the same in different hats, the proof of the missing linkA nation talking to itself and none of us can thinkThings were never what they used to beFor a silent fool may still be wise, there?s no way you can tellAnd the captain more scared than his crew is beautiful people to meAnd the finest government you could buy, it?s beautiful people I seeIf you live five to one against, it?s good enough for meCan?t use two steps to cross a canyon, you?re beautiful people to meIf you don?t see the same trees I see, you?re beautiful people to meMake deserts bloom and oceans die, just beautiful people to meIf you?re lost and dying of civilization, that?s enough for meIf you believe your own blind eye, you?re beautiful people to meAnd you may miss what you never had and have what you don?t needAnd the sun may set without your help, but you?re beautiful people to meYou may fall before you?re pushed, but it?s beautiful people I seeIf you only see the stars when it?s dark, that?s enough for meAn empty soul with a full opinion is beautiful people to meAnd the captain more scared than his crew is beautiful people to meAnd the finest government you could buy, it?s beautiful people I seeIf you live five to one against, it?s good enough for meCan?t use two steps to cross a canyon, you?re beautiful people to meIf you don?t see the same trees I see, you?re beautiful people to meMake deserts bloom and oceans die, just beautiful people to meIf you?re lost and dying of civilization, that?s enough for me
