JEWEL who will save your soul lyrics

Jewel
Pieces of you
who will save your soul
people living their lives for you on tv / they say they're better than you and you agree / another burger, another hot dog, some fries / a wish in the well, hope your health don't go to hell, well / another doctor's bill, another lawyer's bill / another cute cheap thrill / you know you love him if you put him in your will

who will save your soul when it comes to the flower / who will save your soul after all the lies that you told, boy / who will save your soul if you won't save your own?


we try to hustle them, try to bustle them, try to cuss them / the cops want someone to bust down on orleans avenue / another day, another dollar, another war, another tower / went up where the homeless had their homes / so we pray to as many different gods as there are flowers / but we call religion our friend / we're so worried about saving our souls / afraid that god will take his toll / that we forget to begin

some are walking, some are talking, some are stalking their kill / you got social security, but that don't pay your bills / there are addictions to feed and there are mouths to pay / so you bargain with the devil, say you're o.k. for today / you say that you love them, take their money and run / say, it's been swell, sweetheart / but it was just one of those things / those flings, those strings you've got to cut / so get out on the streets, girls, and bust your butts
