Too Much To Ask 가사

A refreshing plunge A drink of palatable water A deep inspiration on a warm summer day A safe stroll in a middle of the road community A neighbour who in times of need will not turn away I ain't no politician, I am a citizen And I wonder if I'm living too far out of bounds Community protection, rehabilitation Police that serve without legitimate right to maim Global awareness, ecological guilt Cultural and environmental awakening I ain't no optimist, I try to be a realist And I think that we're living too far out of bounds Is it too much to ask? Could it be the earth is shrinking? I can see the walls closing in No one can take much for granted anymore Remote control, three cars for every family Corruption at the expense of the simple majority A violent clash, a plunder of the third world Any wretched ploy that bolsters our economy I ain't no blind supporter, I'm a conscious citizen And I know that we're living too far out of bounds I ain't no politician I ain't no blind supporter I ain't no vegetabele I am a citizen And I wonder if I'm living too far out of bounds Is it too much to ask? Can we keep the earth from sinking? I can see the walls closing in No one can take much for granted anymore I'm not taking nothing for granted anymore
