When love has vanished from the Earth
And nothing’s left of any worth
Faithfully, I’ll stand my ground
I'm gonna be around
I'm gonna be around

When all the honest men have come and gone
Down the roads that leads to Babylon
And the last fair deal has gone down
I'm gonna be around
I'm gonna be around

I'm gonna be around
And, I'm gonna do
The thing that I set out to do
I'm gonna be around

Hey

When the country is one big shopping mall
And some slimy corporate cartel owns it all
And every song that you hear on the radio
Has the same sound
I'm gonna be around

I'm gonna be around

Don’t know one try and mess with me
Cause I'm twisted up and ready
Man I'm nervous and I'm dangerous
I'm gonna be around

A man can be his own worst enemy
When he just won’t accept the things he sees
Then the things that just won’t let me sleep
I'm gonna be around
I'm gonna be around

I'm gonna be around
I'm gonna be around
I'm gonna be around

I'm gonna be around
I'm gonna be around
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
