In The Middle Of The Land Lyrics - Hoodoo Gurus

Here I stand in the middle of the land 

Take my hand in the middle of the land 

You'll see something that's new in the sunshine 

You'll be the winter that's turning to springtime 

Here I stand in the middle of the land 

Take my hand in the middle of the land 

Someday someone will try to confuse you 

They'll say things you want to hear and they'll use you 

I thought we'd live and learn 

But some folks seem to yearn 

For values unsophisticated 

Those days are dead and gone 

I won't wish them back upon 

A world that's much more complicated 

Here I stand in the middle of my land 

Take my hand, I'm always glad to lend a hand 

They'll try to blind you with T.V. religion 

Don't buy their hand me down second opinions 

Sometimes the biggest lies 

Are most easily disguised 

Dressed up like the Road To Glory 

Then somewhere down the line 

You'll rub your eyes and find 

You're on a path to your own Purgatory 

You'll know something as old as the moonlight 

You'll throw superstition and fear away tonight 

They'll paint us black and white 

They'll paint us wrong and right 

They'll paint us all into a corner 

They'll try to cool us down 

But they could never fool us now 

We're steamed-up hotter than a Swedish Sauna 

Here I stand in the middle of the land 

Take my, take my hand - your horizons will expand 

Land - in the middle, middle of the land
