[Verse 1]

Maybe you remember, maybe you're locked away

Maybe we'll meet again some better day

Some better life

Mm, Jonathon Fisk speaks with his fists

Can't let me walk home on my own

And just like a knife, down on my life

So many ways to set me right

[Chorus]

It's such a long way home

Ooh, it's how the story goes

And it's like atom bombs and blunt razors

Atom bombs and blunt razors

[Verse 2]

Jonathon then says it's a sin

But he don't think twice, 'cause to him

Religion don't mean a thing

Ooh, it's just another way to be right-wing

Just like a knife, down on my life

So many ways to set it right

Oh, that's how it goes

That's how the story goes

[Chorus]

It's such a long way home

Ooh, you're too old to understand

'Cause I just want to get home now

I just want to get home now

[Verse 3]

Jonathon's right, down on my life

So many ways to set me right

On the long walk home

That's how the story goes

And Jonathon Fisk, always a risk

Tells me he counts my teeth every night

I want to get 'em all back now

I want to get 'em all back

And I want to turn him around, yeah

Ooh, turn him around

Ooh-ooh, turn him around
