We wrap ‘em around us Put ‘em down inside us Those walls Everybody’s got ‘em Their own Private kingdom of walls You say I can’t look through you I will never get to you At all But the message is plain There’s a mess in your brain You got walls
No matter what we try The story’s in our eyes The truth is deep inside But we just go on We just go on Buildin’ those walls
Those walls
Walls
There are a million reasons And it’s always the season For walls What color do you like dear We know it’s so wrong But we keep addin’ on to Those walls Mothers and daughters And brothers and sisters Got walls Between dominations And within your congregations There are walls
No matter what we try The truth is in our eyes Why do we always hide We just go on We just keep on Keep on
Walls
Buildin’ those walls
We think we’re bein’ clever Such sly Sly sinners With walls I ain’t afraid of no walls But the truth of the matter is We don’t fool the Master At all Don’t you think it’s time We had a change of mind Get out your axe and swing Knock ‘em all down Knock ‘em all down Knock ‘em all down Knock ‘em all down Knock down those walls
