[00:00.01]eagles--long road out of eden
[01:32.23]moon shining down through the palms
[01:37.92]shadows moving on the sand
[01:43.54]somebody whispering the twenty-third psalm
[01:50.12]dusty rifle in his trembling hands
[01:55.28]somebody trying just to stay alive
[02:01.76]he got promises to keep
[02:07.12]over the ocean in america
[02:13.20]far away and fast asleep
[02:18.24]silent stars blinking in the blackness of an endless sky
[02:30.09]cold silver satellites, ghostly caravans passing by
[02:42.34]galaxies unfolding, new worlds being born
[02:47.22]pilgrims and prodigals creeping toward the dawn
[02:52.88]but it  s a long road out of eden
[03:10.25]music blasting from an suv
[03:15.96]on a bright and sunny day
[03:22.67]rolling down the interstate
[03:28.01]in the good ol   usa
[03:33.60]having lunch at the petroleum club
[03:38.63]smokin   fine cigars and swappin   lives
[03:44.15]he said:  gimme   nother slice o   that barbecued brisket! 
[03:50.40]gimme other piece o   that pecan pie! 
[03:55.76]freeways flickering, cell phones chiming a tune
[04:07.15]we  re riding to utopia, road map says we  ll be arriving soon
[04:19.74]captains of the old order clinging to the reins
[04:25.48]assuring us these aches inside are only growing pains
[04:31.05]but it  s a long road out of eden
[05:00.72]back home i was so certain
[05:03.75]the path was very clear
[05:06.64]but now i have to wonder that are we doing here??
[05:10.86]i  m not counting on tomorrow
[05:13.94]and i can  t tell wrong from right
[05:17.18]but i  d give anything to be there in your arms tonight
[07:03.66]weaving down the american highway
[07:08.35]through the litter and the wreckage and the cultural junk
[07:14.46]bloated with entitlement, loaded on propaganda
[07:20.15]and now we  re driving dazed and drunk
[07:25.18]been down the road to damascus,
[07:28.93]the road to mandalay
[07:31.86]met the ghost of caesar on the appian way
[07:36.83]he said,  it  s hard to stop this bingeing, once you get a taste. 
[07:43.55] but the road to empire is a bloody stupid waste. 
[07:49.37]behold the bitten apple - the power of the tools
[07:55.18]but all the knowledge in the world is of no use to fools
[08:01.58]and it  s a long road out of eden....
