[Black Flag - What Can You Believe lyrics]
One fine day I was walking
Down the street you know
I stepped into a café to get a bite to eat
A man came in sat down next to me
He said "hey man I think
I know what you need"
He told me his name was sylvester king
And he had gold caps
Blue grass almost anything
I thought that these things just
May be true but
Take it from a man in a polyester suit
What can you believe what can you believe
What can you believe what can you believe
Then I took the bus and
I went downtown you know
I thought I'd take a walk just
To have a look around
A bald headed man stepped up to me
He said "hey friend would you
Like to be free?"
I looked in his eyes I knew that he was
Preaching unified action and unified thoughts
If unity is freedom then freedom
Is sin you're just
A bald headed fool in an orange bathrobe
What can you believe what can you believe
What can you believe what can you believe
What can you believe what can you believe
What can you believe what can you believe
Now I've heard all the stories
And all the fairy tales
And there's always one thing that
Never seems to fail
There's people here there's people all around
Who seem to get their kicks
By putting other people down
You can't judge a book by
Looking at the cover
You can't judge a man by looking at his lover
You think you know a man by the length of his
Hair your talk talk talk just don't seem fair
What can you believe what can you believe
What can you believe what can you believe
Down the street you know
I stepped into a café to get a bite to eat
A man came in sat down next to me
He said "hey man I think
I know what you need"
He told me his name was sylvester king
And he had gold caps
Blue grass almost anything
I thought that these things just
May be true but
Take it from a man in a polyester suit
What can you believe what can you believe
What can you believe what can you believe
Then I took the bus and
I went downtown you know
I thought I'd take a walk just
To have a look around
A bald headed man stepped up to me
He said "hey friend would you
Like to be free?"
I looked in his eyes I knew that he was
Preaching unified action and unified thoughts
If unity is freedom then freedom
Is sin you're just
A bald headed fool in an orange bathrobe
What can you believe what can you believe
What can you believe what can you believe
What can you believe what can you believe
What can you believe what can you believe
Now I've heard all the stories
And all the fairy tales
And there's always one thing that
Never seems to fail
There's people here there's people all around
Who seem to get their kicks
By putting other people down
You can't judge a book by
Looking at the cover
You can't judge a man by looking at his lover
You think you know a man by the length of his
Hair your talk talk talk just don't seem fair
What can you believe what can you believe
What can you believe what can you believe
