Stonewalling Funk

On the street there’s a house on fire
Children ran right out to see what’s going on
A little girl can see her things in flames
Her mother’s standing there
and watching their home disappear

Ten minutes later there are cars and cameras
The TV teams are quick enough
To catch the tears
That da y I’ll sit around a favorite place
The TV’s on, the house on fire wakes my fears

Chorus:
Stonewalling, stonewalling, you’re stonewalling
Stonewalling, you’re stonewalling, stonewalling
Don’t make me feel I’m down falling
Stonewalling, stonewalling, you’re stonewalling
Stonewalling, I’m stonewalling, stonewalling
Don’t make me feel I’m down falling

They just accentuate the negative
Why can’t they see
The glass in half full not empty
Turning over ashes, happy news is no excuse
It’s just a light to cheer you up
When the stock price crashes

Every minute someone falls in love
Every day we’re calling on grace and you tell me
That I’m falling on my face
But on the ground in the sand
I can see a chance

Chorus:
Stonewalling, stonewalling, you’re stonewalling
Stonewalling, you’re stonewalling, stonewalling
Don’t make me feel I’m down falling
Stonewalling, stonewalling, you’re stonewalling
Stonewalling, I’m stonewalling, stonewalling
Don’t make me feel I’m down falling

Bridge
Ooooh, why they do what they do
My world’s upside down
No matter how I try, and I try
I can’t touch the ground
Ooooh, why they do what they do
My world’s upside down
No matter how I try, and I try
I can’t touch the ground

Chorus:
Stonewalling, stonewalling, you’re stonewalling
Stonewalling, you’re stonewalling, stonewalling
Don’t make me feel I’m down falling
Stonewalling, stonewalling, you’re stonewalling
Stonewalling, I’m stonewalling, stonewalling
Don’t make me feel I’m down falling
