about

Someone always loses. Oh and yes this song references the Disney musical "Newsies".

lyrics

There's gotta be someway outta here
said the trembling Philistine as Goliath me the ground
'we are God's chosen too, we asked him he told us
but he won't tell you'

I'm confused for the magic man in the mountain church
only him and his snakes are going to heaven
I'm confused for the Montague and the Capulet
and the sides they've been given

Joseph Pulitzer, cowboy and the boys
are runnin' the streets now
they are God's chosen ones
but they asked God and he said,
'there's room for Joseph too'

I'm confused for the black man down in St. Louis
'no i don't got a cigarette today'
I'm confused for the white man down in St. Louis
who if he had one wouldn't give one away

There's gotta be someway outta here
Dad's got a piece of the Berlin wall
if he could just tell us how it falls
there's gotta be someway outta here
where the good news is really good news
for all
