Kick Down the Walls - Toto

Took the long way to the shortcut

And the walls were made of stone

Took the low road to the highground

Had to feel it in my bones

Everybody wants some heaven

But nobody wants to die

It’s been brought to my attention

You’ll be dead a long time

Now ain’t that a crime

Kick down the walls

Shake down the building

Help me bust out of this cage

Kick down the walls

Shake down the building

Must be time for a change

I went driving in the moonlight

There was no place left to go

I went digging in my coalmine

When I hit the motherload

If this world could work together

Like a big old human clock

It would run on till forever

It would never have to stop, never have to stop

Kick down the walls

Shake down the building

Help me bust out of this cage

Kick down the walls

Shake down the building

Must be time for a change

(Instrumental break)

You can’t buy no protection

Don’t care who you are

Spreading out in all directions

Now it’s no hold barred

Everybody runs for cover

From the sun and sex and sin

If you think you got the answers

Buddy just you come on in Step right in Kick down the walls

Shake down the building

Help me bust out of this cage

Kick down the walls

Shake down the building

Must be time for a change

(repeats 2x)

Kick down the walls

Shake down the building

Kick down the walls

Shake down the building

Kick down the walls

Shake down the building

Kick down the walls

Shake down the building
