lyrics

roll away the stone dean/kearns music mint bmi

seems like a mighty long time
that i’ve been in this tomb
mental rigor mortis is making me so morose
come here martha, come here mary
seems my life’s been gettin’ kinda sedentary
don’t you thik it’s time we rolled away the stone

i’ve been looking for a remedy
to cure what’s been ailing me
i’ve been watching the tops of my toes way too long
my soul could use a little rehabilitation
my heart could use a little rest and recreation
don’t you think it’s time we rolled away the stone

roll away the stone
open up my eyes
let me be a child again
i want to know what it’s like to be a little surprised
how much longer we got to stay in this place
i want to feel the sun shining on my face

like little bitty cogs in a big machine
we turn and we grind in some billionaire’s dream
we go to work, we eat, we watch tv
we forget what it means to be alive
too busy doin’ that dog eat dog
and that struggle and strive
don’t you think it’s time we rolled away the stone

roll away the stone
open up my eyes
let me be a child again
i want to know what it’s like to be just a little surprised
how much longer we got to stay down here
when we gonna lose all the hate and all that fear
don’t you think it’s time we rolled
don’t you think it’s time we rolled
don’t you think it’s time that we rolled away the stone

help me roll away the stone
