[Verse 1]
God knows what is hiding in that weak and drunken heart
I guess you kissed the girls and made them cry
Those hard faced queens of misadventure
God knows what is hiding in those weak and sunken eyes
A fiery throng of muted angels
Giving love and getting nothing back

[Chorus]
Oh, People help the people
And if you're homesick
Give me your hand and I'll hold it
People help the people
And nothing will drag you down
Oh, and if I had a brain
Oh, and if I had a brain
I'd be cold as a stone
And rich as the fool
That turned all those good hearts away

[Verse 2]
God knows what is hiding in that world of little consequence
Behind the tears inside the lies
A thousand slowly dying sunsets
God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts
I guess that loneliness came knocking
No-one needs to be alone, oh singing

[Chorus]
People help the people
And if you're homesick
Give me your hand and I'll hold it
People help the people
Nothing will drag you down
Oh, and if I had a brain
Oh, and if I had a brain
I'd be cold as a stone
And rich as the fool
That turned all those good hearts away

[Bridge]
Nahh nah nah nah
Nahh nah nah nah
Nahh nah nah nah
Nahh nah nah nah
Nahh nah nah nah
Nahh nah nah nah
Nahh nah nah nah
Nahh nah nah nah

[Chorus]
People help the people
And if you're homesick
Give me your hand and I'll hold it
People help the people
Nothing will drag you down
Oh, and if I had a brain
Oh. and if I had a brain
I'd be cold as a stone
And rich as the fool
That turned all those good hearts away
