they said they'd have to raze the house
the highway wasn't wide enough
"so please take this check for your troubles
we're sorry yes we know it's tough"
you that's the way you see it
you say you're only being fair
it's the way it looks from where you're standing
but you're standing there
you're standing there
and I'm standing ....
my son applied for work but his application was ignored
for hard work, high grades you shouldn't bother
don't have the right EEOC codes
try seeing eye to eye with those that stand to lose
things might look a little bit different if you're
standing inside their shoes
for thirty years I worked a job waiting for my reward
the day came, only a fraction remained
downturn in the market was the report
you say it's the way you see it
you swear you're only being fair
it's the way it looks from where you're standing
but you're standing there
you're standing there
and I'm standing here
