Testo di Up With Hope (Down With Dope)

I have know this preacherman For a long time, he was a good man I have known this judge For a long time, he was a good man I have known this teacher For a long time, he was a good man too But because of the drugs They've been taking secretly Them are in loony houses today We cannot stand aside and look While the nation is going down the drain (x2) Up with hope, down with dope (x3) We cannot stand aside and look While the nation is going down the drain. We really, really cannot stand aside and look while the nation is going down the drain Oh Yo I am telling you now Cocaine, no good for you Liquor, no good for you You go sniffling them glue No good for you They give it to you and say it's the sense of knowledge But I known I've been around For a while I cannot stand aside And look while the nation (x2) Is going down the drain Oh yo yo yo Chorus till fade: Up with hope, down with dope
