Strong And Wrong

Joni Mitchell · Other Songs - Joni Mitchell

Strong and wrong

You win only because

That's the way it's always been

Men love war



That's what history's for

A mass murder mystery

History

His story



Strong and wrong

You lose everything

Without the heart

You need to hear a robin sing



Where have all the songbirds gone?

Gone, all I hear are crows in flight

Singing, might is right

Might is right



The dawn of man comes slow

Thousands of years

And here we are still worshiping

Our own egos



Strong and wrong

What is God's will?

Onward Christian soldiers

Or thou shall not kill

But men love war



Is that what God is for

Just a rabbit's foot, just a lucky paw

For shock and awe

Shock and awe?



The dawn of man comes slow

Thousands of years

Here we are still worshiping

Our own egos



Strong and wrong

Strong and wrong
