Close Enough - Tony Lucca

There’s war going on on the other side of the world

There’s fire in the hills of Malibu

There’s a hurricane poundin' on the Gulf Coast again

There’s a virus on its way to you

We’ve got politicians pushing their promises

We’ve got puppets in positions of power

Soldier’s on his way off to Baghdad yet again where the bombs are going off by

the hour

Tell me is it hittin'

Tell me it it hittin'

Close enough to home for you yet?

Close enough to home for you yet?

We’ve got aliens cookin' in the kitchen

We’ve got bigots on the right side of the aisle

Writers holdin' picket signs have put down their pens

Somewhere a beggar’s beggin' for a smile

For a smile

Now, tell me is it hittin'

Tell me is it hittin'

Close enough to home for you?

They keep spillin' blood for oil

They keep mistakin' greed for gain

They keep paying politics for fear like it’s some stupid game

Don’t they know that life is precious?

Can’t they see how hate is strong?

Don’t they know that love is all ya need?

Only love will carry on

Now, tell me is it hittin'?

Tell me is it hittin', ya’ll?

Tell me is it hittin' close enough to home?

Close enough to home

Close enough to home

Close enough to home

Close enough to home
