lyrics

why do quarterbacks always say good game?
diplomats with helmets and a hulking frame
they rode their horses all the way to the village
but then refused to plunder & burn & pillage

the flags are whipping against the smoky sky
you yell your yell and then I cry my cry
do I knock down your wall or knock on your door
a handshake could be keeping us out of war

(Chorus)
then I hear your voices sing out owhoaaaohohhhh!
and so my choir rings out ooohoohhohhh!
you know the way the song is owhoaaaohohhhh!
a kindred cry responds with ooohoohhohhh!

this town is big enough
for the both of us
we could use a little trust

the steeple on your church is making a face
we don't think you know the meaning of grace
our stomachs aching nervously as we arrive
but worshipers are there with arms open wide

CHORUS

this town is big enough
for the both of us
we could use a little trust

I don't get you
and you don't get me
but I don't get to
let you forget me

and if I forget you
then I have failed too
cuz we can't neglect to
find ways to get through

CHORUS

this town is big enough
for the both of us
we could use a little trust
