General Joy

General joy I know I know
You'll take me there -
Where your boys were left behind

General joy it seems you need
A soldier girl -
Now "they" have liberty gagged
By boat by tram by motorbus
Could it be the fates are protecting us
From the hawks that have stolen the bird from the sky
And I know

You will always love sorrow

Is that why

You gave her dress to happiness?

'Cause it matches her eyes

When she cries

General joy it seems
You don't love your bride
Generally
You're friends but she is not the love of your life
To dye to perm to change your hair or your wife
The possibilities are there

And it's time for you to decide

And I know
You will always love sorrow
Is that why
You gave her dress to happiness?

'Cause it matches her eyes

When she cries

General joy I know I know
You'll take me there -

But you'll need strength

From within
General joy it seems you need
A soldier girl -
And a willing coalition
By boat by tram by motorbus
Could it be the hawks are protecting us
From the men who have now assumed their name
And I know
You will always love sorrow

Is that why

You gave her dress to happiness?

'Cause it matches her eyes
When she cries

'Cause it matches her eyes

When she cries
