Long Night Lyrics by Ben Brinton

2017

Well I’ve played so many parts
I don’t know whom I’m suppose to be
Tried to be a hero so many times
Got pinch for villainy
By a people who don’t know shit
From simple silly sympathy
So I found myself away from all this civility
And all them people slamming
Each one a gavel in their hands
Tried to tell me what’s the best
For a middle-class man
"Let’s bleed him of his best, make a label, make a brand
And then we’ll tax him for a job well done, selling gavels at his stand."
Oh, it’s a long night. Long night
And all them suite box, riding high on precious VIP
Understand this shit went down back in 18th century
Now, the French they like their coffee and their revolutionary tea
And I think they got a thought or two about democracy
Oh, it’s a long night. Long night
Now I won’t go preaching, thinking violence, it meets an end
But bones will sooner break than values will even bend
And If you’ve seen all the statistic, analyze the latest trends
Ninety-nine percent of us are just trying to make amends
Oh, it’s a long night. Long night
