It’s A Long Way to the Promised Land Bad Religion

[Verse 1]
It's a long way to the promised land
So you'd better well know your way
There's a ship on the ocean and an albatross
Who is trying to lead you astray
Leaders, politicians, and power whores
Are in line to receive your choice
You bet your ass, if you give it to them
They will gladly take your voice

[Chorus]
And it's a long way to the promised land (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
Whoa-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
It's a long way to the promised land (Whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
Whoa-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2]
It's a long way to the promised land
If we work, we might find it here
There's no substitute for enlightenment
There's no reason for bridled fear
When you join the people who've joined the club
You gotta clench and play your hand
'Cause if you fall in line, you're gonna fall in time
And you'll never make a stand
