Wish You Were Here

wish you were here



[wyclef jean is an idiot who steals other people's good music and turns it into

Drivel, but heh, enough about his pathetic cover tune, here are the correct

Lyrics]



Let's go

So so you think you can tell

Heaven from hell?

Blue skies from pain?

Can you tell a green field

From a cold steel rail?

A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

Did they get you to trade

Your heroes for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change?

Did you exchange

A walk on part in the war

For a lead role in a cage?



Whether you listenin to hip hip-hop

Or you tuning to rock

Refugees on your box

We gonna take over ya blocks



Let's go

How i wish, how i wish you were here

We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl year after year

Running over the same old ground

Have we found the same old fears

Wish you were here



Whether you listenin to rock

Or pumpin the hip hip hop

Refugees on your box



Critics don't mistake this for just any cover tune

I'ma take y'all to the dark side of the moon

Kickin in my mom's room this song was just a thought

A young refugee labeled, jus' come with a passport

Dad used to tell me about the 'american dream'

My dream was waking up the projects

A young teen listening to hip hop

My brother tune me into rock

Put me up on pink floyd, a band from the british blocks



Whether you pumpin the hip hip hop

Or you tuning to rock

Refugees on your box

We gonna take over the blocks

From n.j to bk to the u.k
