Move Lyrics - Rilo Kiley

Everybody stand up, get down 

Move when I tell you to, so move now 

Gather the people 

Move to a new place 

Gather the people 

Do it in a few days 

Gather the people 

Find out the new ways 

To start a new phase 

In a few days 

In a new place 

Crawled through the desert on naked feet 

A mile long line marching the beat 

Escaped centuries of slavery 

Followed the shepherd like herds of sheep 

To a land sitting on the beach 

Tried to live for once peacefully 

Till the Romans grew geographically 

Stole their land but not their dignity 

Everybody stand up, get down 

Move when I tell you to, so move now 

Gather the people 

Move to a new place 

Gather the people 

Do it in a few days 

Gather the people 

Find out the new ways 

To start a new phase 

In a few days 

In a new place 

Welcome to Europe come on in 

One ignorant inquisition 

The Spanish killed those who weren't Christian 

The pogroms were an imposition 

Forced out by the angry Russians 

The Germans killed twelve million by crushing 

The UN sent them back where they came from 

To fight outnumbered sixty to one for Zion 

Everybody stand up, get down 

Move when I tell you to, so move now 

Arafat sending boy to blow up his own face 

Begging to not die in vain 

Back in 1967, 5735 

In the place near heaven 

A country a third the size of LA 

Conquered four armies in six days 

Another widow thrown to her knees 

What will it take to live in peace? 

Everybody stand up, get down 

Move when I tell you to, so move now 

Gather your people 

Move to a new place 

Gather your people 

Do it in a few days 

Gather your people 

Find out the new ways 

To start a new phase 

In a few days 

In a new place 

Everybody stand up
