We'll Inherit The Earth Lyrics - Replacements

"Shocking how nothing shocks anymore," 

The message read as it washed ashore 

Skies turn black as my eyes look down 

Written on the back are these words I've found: 

"We'll inherit the earth but we don't want it 

It's been ours since birth, what'cha doin' on it? 

We'll inherit the earth but we don't want it 

Layin' claim at birth, what'cha doin' on it?" 

Waterfalls of grain flow through our hands 

We're too weak to stand and too weak to stray 

Big trees sway and the air is still 

Lovers climb at the top of a hill and say 

"We'll inherit the earth but we don't want it 

It's been ours since birth, what'cha doin' on it? 

We'll inherit the earth but we don't want it 

Laid our claim at birth, what'cha doin' on it?"

We watch the world from the padded cell 

And our eyes scream what our lips must quell 

Oh, well... 

{I've been told that the light shines darkness} 

{...it ain't quite the same} 

{the dark gales} {if I was off the wall then it's you I bring} 

{remains} {they're all frustration whales} 

Last bundle of twigs grew strong and young 

We can't hold our tongues at the top of our lungs 

We'll inherit the earth but don't tell anybody 

It's been ours since birth, and it's ours already 

We'll inherit the earth but don't tell anybody 

It's been ours since birth, and it's ours already 

We'll inherit the earth but don't tell anybody 

Don't tell a soul
