Verse
Big men, little men turned into dust
Maybe it was all in fun, they didn't mean to ruin no one
Could there be someone, someone here among this crowd
Who's been accused, had his name so misused
And his privacy refused?
Chorus
Close your eyes, hang your head
Until the fog blows away, let it roll away
Open up your arms and feel the good
It's a-comin', a brand new day
Hmm, no, no, no
Verse
Now all you vigilantes wanna make a move
Maybe they won't, you know I sure hope they don't
For whether this rumor proves true or false
You can forgive or you can regret
But he will never ever forget
Chorus
Close your eyes, hang down your head
Until the fog blows away, let it roll away
Open up your arms and feel the good
It's a-comin', a brand new day
Hmm, la la la la la
Oh oh la la la la la
