Don Henley
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
While you were sleeping
2
They came and took it all away
3
The lanes and the meadows
4
The places where you used to play
5
It was an inside job
6
By the well-connected
7
Your little protest
8
Summarily rejected
9
It was an inside job
10
Like it always is
11
Chalk it up to business as usual
12
While we are dreaming
13
This little island disappears
14
While you are looking the other way
15
They'll take your right to own your own ideas
16
And it's an inside job
17
Favors collected
18
Your trusted servants
19
Have left you unprotected
20
It was an inside job
21
Like it always is
22
Just chalk it up
23
To business as usual
24
You think that you're so smart
25
But you don't have a fucking clue
26
What those men up in the towers
27
Are doing to me and you
28
And they'll keep doin' it and doin' it
29
And doin' it and doin' it
30
And doin' it and doin' it
31
And doin' it and doin' it
32
Until we all wake up
33
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
34
I know what I've done wrong
35
I am acquainted with the night
36
I know how hard it is
37
To always walk out in the light
38
And it's an inside job
39
To learn about forgiving
40
It's an inside job
41
To hang on to the joy of living
42
They know the road by which you came
43
They know your mother's maiden name
44
And what you had for breakfast
45
And what you've hidden in the mattress
46
Insect politics
47
Indifferent universe
48
Bang your head against the wall
49
But apathy is worse
50
It's an inside job
51
It's an inside job
52
It's an inside job
53
Yeh, yeah
54
It's an inside job
55
It's an inside job
56
It's an inside job
57
It's an inside job
58
It's an inside job
59
It's an inside job
