Promised Land

There's a silver tower made of glass and steel I guess its dry in there I bet it smells of money and of quiet deals In the warm and greedy air Outside is where I live In the shadow of the giant's hand In a shanty town made of tents and tears In the promised land In the promised land In the promised land Where the crumbs will fall Into your hand There's a face I know on that office guy He's someone I once knew We shared a desk in another life Back in our old high school His life is full of luck With wealth at his command But I got sick and fell behind In the promised land In the promised land In the promised land Where the crumbs will fall Into your hand We were told if the rich get rich Then the wealth will trickle down I'd be on me on my feet again I wouldn't have to sleep on the ground They said if you work hard And follow the rules, then you can come inside But there aren't enough hours and there aren't enough days In an honest poor man's life If you wanna get ahead, you better start ahead It's a rich man's scam You can't cross that great divide In the promised land In the promised land In the promised land Where the crumbs will fall Into your hand In the promised land In the promised land Where the crumbs will fall Into your hand
