People Help the People Lyrics
[00:21.70] God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
[00:28.05] I guess you kissed the girls and made them cry
[00:31.95] Those Hardfaced Queens of misadventure
[00:36.95] God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken eyes
[00:42.55] A Fiery throng of muted angels
[00:45.98] Giving love but getting nothing back
[00:50.82] People help the people
[00:56.72] And if your homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it
[01:03.93] People help the people
[01:10.08] And nothing will drag you down
[01:13.53] Oh and if I had a brain, Oh and if I had a brain
[01:21.30] I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
[01:25.82] That turned all those good hearts away
[01:32.02]
[01:37.03] God knows what is hiding in this world of little consequence
[01:43.78] Behind the tears, inside the lies
[01:47.07] A thousand slowly dying sunsets
[01:50.55] God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
[01:56.09] I guess the loneliness came knocking
[01:59.53] No one needs to be alone, oh save me
[02:03.87] People help the people
[02:09.17] And if your homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it
[02:16.45] People help the people
[02:22.24] Nothing will drag you down
[02:25.76] Oh and if I had a brain, Oh and if I had a brain
[02:32.84] I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
[02:37.20] That turned, all those good hearts away
[02:42.99]
[03:26.86] People help the people
[03:32.27] And if your homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it
[03:39.11] People help the people
[03:45.18] Nothing will drag you down
[03:48.35] Oh and if I had a brain, Oh and if I had a brain
[03:55.31] I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
[03:59.73] That turned all those good hearts away
[04:03.88]

[02:32.84] I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
[02:37.20] That turned, all those good hearts away
[02:42.99]
[03:26.86] People help the people
[03:32.27] And if your homesick, give me your hand and I'll hold it
[03:39.11] People help the people
[03:45.18] Nothing will drag you down
[03:48.35] Oh and if I had a brain, Oh and if I had a brain
[03:55.31] I'd be cold as a stone and rich as the fool
[03:59.73] That turned all those good hearts away
[04:03.88]
