"Good Planets Are Hard To Find"- tribute to John Lennon

[incoobus]

I got the title from a bumber sticker that i thought was clever. This is the first song of this subject matter that i've ever written about. it's just kind of about parents, politics, and teachers blaming everything but themselves.
Elliott Smith, Bright Eyes, Iron and Wine etc... type of style

"Good Planets Are Hard To Find"

Verse 1
Look whats left
White lie through approval
Soon steps take to defense
The black gold of blood
The black blood of love
The blood love in brothers
In fathers and sons
In daugters of mothers
The once happy young lovers
We're all thats left
All thats left of the others

Chorus 1
Dominos of life
One falls for the other
Fight for whats right
Not whats right in front of us

Verse 2
Green plants of "death"
Not the pills or the parents
Violence and sex
Our mind numbed coherence
Moveing pictures and music
Whats left to blame
Turn around your finger
You once were the same

Chorus 2
Your Elvis and The Beatles
Our guns and our needles
Comply with the rankings
Their hands we'll be shaking

Chorus 1

Outro
We've given all we got
Still they drink from our cup
Good planets are hard to find
Lets not f.uck this one up
