R.E.M. – Green Grow The Rushes Lyrics 
Share
(Berry/Buck/Mills/Stipe)
The wheelbarrow,s fallen
Look at my hands
They,ve found some surplus, cheaper hands
Rubbing palms and pick and choose,
Who will they choose? Here is the news
Look at that building, look at this man
Haloed and whitewashed
Gone to find a cheaper hand
He,ll offer a pound, offer a pound
(chorus)
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
The compass points the worker,s home

Pay for your freedom, find another gate
Guilt by associate, the rushes wilted a long time ago
Guilty as you go
Stay off that highway, word is it,s not so safe
The grasses that hide the greenback
The amber waves of gain again
The amber waves of gain
(repeat chorus)
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
