Not Necessary Evil Songtext
von George Lynch

It′s not necessary evil
It's not necessary rage
Searching in my heart of darkness
Won′t justify this day and age

Let me one day
Remember it all
The sweet smell of smoke
As the fire burns
In our backyard

I can't show you, I can't teach you
The lessons of life seem so hard
So much friction, so much pain
God knows we need a change

It′s not necessary evil
It′s not necessary evil

You know you can't take the peoples spirit
You know you can′t take away their dreams
We all want to be free, without responsibility
Gotta take some time to learn


A handful of men
They took all the gold
They threaten the land
They poisoned the air
They're selling their souls

I can′t show you, I can't teach you
The lessons of life seem so hard
So much friction, so much pain
God knows we need a change

A never ending story
Will we ever be what we want to be
We must change the rules we live by,
And we must make something
So that others may simply live today
I hope and pray that you′ll come with me
I'm asking you, begging you

Let me one day
Remember it all
The sweet smell of smoke
As the fire burns
In our backyard


I can't show you, I can′t teach you
The lessons of life seem so hard
So much friction, so much pain
God knows we need a change

I can′t show you, I can't teach you
The lessons of life seem so hard
So much friction, so much pain
God knows we need a change

I can′t show you, I can't teach you
The lessons of life seem so hard
So much friction, so much pain
God knows we need a change
