Lyrics

Got a guy on the corner yelling at the bus stop
The people there don't know what's going on
I've seen him where he lives - under the freeway
He served in Desert Storm in a time long gone
If he had the power
He'd wish it all into the cornfield
Wish it into the cornfield
You gotta ask why he do what he do
It helps to understand what's he's been through
He's got nothing left nothing left to give
He's having a real tough time just trying to live
If he had the power
He'd wish it into the cornfield
Wish it all into the cornfield
Bye little Johnny bye bye
What's left on the battlefield, he cries
Not sure just what he saw
A victim of the shock and awe - but he tries
To wish it all into the cornfield
Yeah he just wanna wish it into the cornfield
Bye little Johnny bye bye
What's left in his heart, he cries
He's sure that what he saw
Wasn't part of any God's law - but he tries
To wish it all into the cornfield
Yeah he wanna wish it all into the cornfield
