Lyrics
[Chorus]
Hey, little sister, I heard you went to Mr. So-and-so
Knock, knock, knocking on his door again last night
Said you needed it bad, you know that ain't right
'Cause so many time you've come to me cry, cryin'
Trying to stop, you said it hurts so bad
But please don't let you go back for more
[Verse 1]
My little sister is a zombie in a body with no soul
A role she has learned to play
In a world today where nothing else matters
But it matters, we gotta start feeding our souls
[Verse 2]
Not our addictions or afflictions of pain, to avoid the same
Questions we must ask ourselves to get any answers
[Verse 3]
We gotta start feeding our souls
Have been lost to the millions with lots
Who feed on addiction, selling pills and what's hot
And I wish I could save her from all their delusions
All the confusion, hey, hey
[Verse 4]
Of a nation that starves for salvation
But clothing is the closest approximation to God
And he only knows that drugs are all we know of love
Everyday we starve while we eat white bread
And beer instead of a handshake or hug
We spill the pills and sweep them under the rug, hey, hey
[Verse 5]
My little sister is a zombie in a body with no soul
A role she has leaned to play
In a world today where nothing else matters
But it matters, we gotta start feeding our souls, hey, hey
[Chorus]
Hey, little sister, I heard you went to Mr. So and so
Knock, knock, knocking on his door again last night
Said you needed more
