What's Gonna Happen To Us

I saw on the TV we're sellin' arms to the enemy

So he can blow us all down

While we charge with the cards in our hands

And men in power places are resigning

'Cause even in high seats the woman is still fighting with the man

And though I thought the time of the tough guy was just about over

Here comes another savior to stir the soldiers in the field

But what do the generals think about while the soldiers are dying?

'Cause the rallying cries don't reach 'em

And if they could feel, they'd say

What's gonna happen to us?

What's gonna happen to us?

Does your shrink say find out who you are

Before you try to become a part of me?

Ooh, I'd think you'd want to anyway

But she can't help you to live out a middle-class fantasy

But can she talk you into leavin'

When your heart tells you to stay?

Just when I thought the era of the guru was over

Here comes another savior to stir the soldiers in the field

But what does the teacher care about while the student is trying?

'Cause your crying mind don't reach her

And if she could feel, she'd say

What's gonna happen to us?

What's gonna happen to us?

What's gonna happen to us? Don't wanna know, babe

What's gonna happen to us?

Can we hold on to happiness?

Will we go down to sadness? Sadness

What's gonna happen to us?

What's gonna happen to us?

I wanna know, know, know, know baby, oh

Can we hold on to happiness?

Or will we go down in sadness?

Gonna happen to us

We're living in glory

It beats with a story

And we're our own source of retribution

All else is illusion

Can we hold on to our happiness?

Or will we go down in sadness?

Tell me what's gonna happen to us?

I wanna know now baby

Can we hold on to happiness?

Gonna happen to us

Gonna happen to us

Go back to our sadness

Hold on to happiness

Go back to our sadness

What's gonna happen
