Keeping Us Together

Filthy news day
Filthy weather
Filthy thoughts
Keeping us together
Filthy minds
Filthy wishes
Filthy sink
Filled with filthy dishes

While all around you falls apart
Keeping us together
So I work my fingers to the bone
Keeping us together

Spinning circles
Spinning lines
Spinning crows feet
Around your eyes
Spinning tops
Spinning tales
Watch your life
Spinning down the drain

And I go on fighting for the cause
Keeping us together
And so I'll work my fingers to the bone
Keeping us together

Reach across, the great divide
We'll be together side by side
Won't take so long
You'll find me there
If I could hold my breath another minute, I would,
And never want it back

Rock the boat
Rock the Kasbah
Rock my world
It's getting harder
Take me home
Light the candles
Lighten my load
When it's too hard to handle

I'll go on fighting for the cause
Keeping us together
And I'll work my fingers to the bone
Keeping us together
Keeping us together
