Throwing Stones (Live At Madison Square Garden NY Sept 1990) - Grateful Dead[00:00:00]
Picture a bright blue ball just spinning spinning free[00:00:23]
Dizzy with eternity[00:00:28]
Paint it with a skin of sky brush in some clouds and sea[00:00:33]
Call it home for you and me[00:00:37]
A peaceful place or so it looks from space[00:00:44]
A closer look reveals the human race[00:00:48]
Full of hope full of grace is the human face[00:00:53]
But afraid we may lay our home to waste[00:00:58]
There's a fear down here we can't forget hasn't got a name just yet[00:01:06]
Always awake always around singing ashes ashes all fall down[00:01:16]
Now watch as the ball revolves and the nightime calls[00:01:27]
And again the hunt begins and again the bloodwind calls[00:01:32]
By and by again the morning sun will rise[00:01:38]
The darkness never goes from some men's eyes[00:01:42]
Well you know it strolls the sidewalks and it rolls the streets[00:01:46]
Stalking turf dividing up meat[00:01:52]
Nightmare spook piece of heat it's you and me you and me[00:01:58]
Click flashblade in ghetto night Rudie's looking for a fight[00:02:11]
Rat cat alley roll them bones need that cash to feed that Jones[00:02:20]
And the politicians throwing stones[00:02:28]
Singing ashes ashes all fall down[00:02:31]
Commissars and pin-striped bosses role the dice[00:02:36]
Any way they fall guess who gets to pay the price [00:02:41]
Money green or proletarian gray[00:02:46]
Selling guns instead of food today[00:02:50]
So the kids they dance they shake their bones[00:02:59]
While the politicians throwing stones[00:03:01]
Singing ashes ashes all fall down[00:03:03]
Heartless powers try to tell us what to think[00:03:30]
If the spirit's sleeping then the flesh is ink yea[00:03:36]
History's page it is thusly carved in stone[00:03:41]
The future's here we are it we are on our own[00:03:45]
On our own on our own on our own[00:03:52]
If the game is lost then we're all the same[00:06:45]
No one left to place or take the blame[00:06:50]
We will leave this place an empty stone[00:06:55]
For that shinning ball we can call our home[00:06:59]
So the kids they dance they shake their bones[00:07:07]
And the politicians throwing stones[00:07:10]
Singing ashes ashes all fall down[00:07:12]
Shipping powders back and forth[00:07:48]
Singing black goes South while white comes North[00:07:53]
And the whole world full of petty wars[00:07:58]
Singing I got mine and you got yours[00:08:03]
And the current fashions set the pace[00:08:08]
Lose your step fall out of grace[00:08:14]
And the radical he rant and rage[00:08:18]
Singing someone got to turn the page[00:08:23]
And the rich man in his summer home[00:08:29]
Singing just leave well enough alone[00:08:33]
But his pants are down his cover's blown[00:08:39]
And the politicians are throwing stones[00:08:44]
So the kids they dance and shake their bones[00:08:46]
'Cause its all too clear we're on our own[00:08:49]
Singing ashes ashes all fall down[00:08:51]
Singing ashes ashes all fall down[00:08:58]
Picture a bright blue ball just spinning spinning free[00:08:59]
It's dizzying the possibilities[00:09:02]
Ashes ashes all fall down[00:09:08]
Ashes ashes all fall down[00:09:12]
Ashes ashes all fall down[00:09:15]
Ashes ashes all fall down[00:09:18]
All fall down all fall down[00:09:21]
Singing ashes ashes all fall down[00:09:26]
All fall down all fall down[00:09:30]
Singing ashes ashes all fall down[00:09:33]
Ashes ashes all fall down[00:09:39]
Ashes ashes all fall down[00:09:42]
