Verse 1

Old James Dean Monroe

Hands out flowers at the shop-n-go

Hopes for money but all he gets is fear

 And the wind blows up his coat

 And this he scribbles on a perfume note

 "If I'm not here, then you're not here"

And he says,

 "Call me miscreation,

I'm a walking celebration"

Chorus

 And it's hard to make a stand

 Yeah, it's hard to make a stand

 I think it's hard to make a stand

 Oh, it's hard to make a stand

Verse 2

My friend, o lawdy

Went to take care of her own body

But she got shot down in the road

She looked up before she went

 Said, "this isn't really what I meant"

 And the daily news said, "two with one stone"

And I say,

 "Hey, there, miscreation,

Bring a flower, time is wasting"

Chorus

 And it's hard to make a stand

 Oh, it's hard to make a stand

 Oh, it's hard to make a stand

 I think it's hard to make a stand

Yes it is

Bridge

Verse 3

 We got loud guitars and quite suspicions

Big, big guns and small ambitions

And we still argue over who is God

And I say,

 "Hey there, miscreation

We all need a revelation"

I say,

 "Hey there, miscreation

We all need a celebration"

Last Verse:

 Yeah , it's hard to make a stand

 Oh, it's hard to make a stand

 Yeah , it's hard to make a stand

 I think it's hard to make a stand

 Oh, and it's hard to make a stand

 I think it's hard to make a stand

 I think it's hard to make a stand
