It's A Long Way To The Promise Land Lyrics - Bad Religion

it's a long way to the promised land 

so you'd better well know your way 

where's a ship on the ocean 

and an albatross who is trying to lead you astray 

leaders, politicians, and power whores 

are in line to receive your choice 

and you bet your ass, if you give it to them, 

they will gladly take your voice 

and it's a long way to the promised land 

wo-oh oh oh oh 

it's a long way to the promised land 

if we work we might find it here 

there's no substitute for enlightenment, 

there's no reason for bridled fear 

when you join the people who've joined the club 

you gotta clench and play your hand 

cuz if you fall in line you're gonna fall in time 

and you'll never make a stand 

it's a long way to the promised land 

wo-oh oh oh oh 

what are you going to do? 

when they call for you? 

bend and capitulate? 

or keep your head on straight? 

easy answers bought without experience, 

is gonna lead you to certain doom 

because the truth is just what you make of it 

it begins and ends with you! 

it's a long way to the promised land 

wo-oh oh oh oh 

it's a long way to the promised land 

wo-oh oh oh oh 

it's a long way 

when you join the people who joined the club 

you gotta clench and play your hand 

cause the truth is just what you make of it 

it's a long way 

get in line
