In The Name Of A Cause Lyrics - Blues Traveler

Music & lyrics: john popper 

Alan had always planned to be a doctor 

Servicing mankind was really where it was 

Working in small towns, he's unhappy 

So great a surgeon deserves some applause 

In the name of a cause 

In the name of a cause 

In the name of a cause 

Sylvia's ashamed of her family 

They love her a lot, but they never get it right 

Marrying a millionaire's mommy 

Biding her time, she finally says goodnight 

In the name of a cause 

In the name of a cause 

In the name of a cause 

In the name of a cause 

Effect has nothing to do with a cause 

May we take a pause 

For another cause 

Bartholomew jones is quite crazy 

Ruling men and nations; all of them at war 

Braving conflict undaunted 

Down to the last bit and not one minute before 

In the name of a cause 

In the name of a cause 

In the name of a cause 

Ideas are what you make them
