Soul Asylum - New World

lives in a lonely little town
no one's around except for the drinkin'
nobody ever gets around but those who leave
the township sinking
may you rot in heaven gotta be home by seven
and the field burns away the sky breathes it in
so why sits and waits for the new world to begin

I'm comin' out across your border
with new orders for you to take
I'd really like to take out your daughter
down by the water down by the lake
when the cold water's on her skin
I can feel how long it's been
and the neighbors will all be there
and no one will know what to wear
so why sit and wait for the new world to begin

I got a lot I gotta do just to get through
the end of the day
it hardly ever happens but I go to sleep
the same anyway
and you can't believe in yourself
you can't believe in anyone else
so why sit and wait for the new world to begin

Brian Premo - "New World" (Soul Asylum cover)

Soul Asylum is one of the most underrated bands of all time. They've been making great music for many many years, and are still doing so. This is my take on "New World" off their Grave Dancers...
