Close Enough Songtext
von Tony Lucca

There′s a war going on on the other side of the world
There's fire in the hills of Malibu
There′s a hurricane pounding on the Gulf Coast again
There's a virus on its way to you, yeah

We've got politicians pushing their promises
We′ve got puppets in positions of power
A soldier′s on his way off to Baghdad yet again
Where the bombs are going off by the hour

Tell me, is it hitting?
Tell me, is it hitting
Close enough to home for you yet?
Close enough to home for you yet?

We've got aliens cooking in the kitchen
We′ve got bigots on the right side of the aisle
Writers holding picket signs have put down their pens
Somewhere a beggar's begging for a smile, for a smile


Now tell me, is it hitting?
Tell me, is it hitting
Close enough to home for you?

They keep spilling blood for oil
They keep mistaking greed for gain
They keep playing politics with fear like it′s some stupid game
Don't they know that life is precious?
Can′t they see how hate is strong?
Don't they know that love is all you need?
Only love will carry on

Now tell me, is it hitting?
Tell me, is it hitting, y'all?
Tell me, is it hitting
Close enough to home?

Close enough to home
Close enough to home
Close enough to home
Close enough to home
