Crash Test Dummies - Promised Land Lyrics






Take me away
Take me away
Take me to the promised land now
Take me away
Take me away
Take me to the promised land now

I don't know why
I don't know why
We bother to cry till we say goodbye girl
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why

Days are getting longer
Nights are getting colder
I'm drinking more
Turn up as soon as I'm sober
So stand up now
Get really loud
Throw your hands in the air
How do you like me now?

Take me away
Take me away
Take me to the promised land now
Take me away
Take me away
Take me to the promised land now

Take me away
Take me away
Take me to the promised land now
Take me away
Take me away
Take me to the promised land now

I don't know why
I don't know why
Always give up before we even try girl
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why

Days are getting longer
Nights are getting colder
I'm drinking more
Turn up as soon as I'm sober
So stand up now
Get really loud
Throw your hands in the air
How do you like me now?

Take me away
Take me away
Take me to the promised land now
Take me away
Take me away
Take me to the promised land now

  7. M.... D....

    This is so badass. Like, beyond belief! Sooo badass.

  8. M.... R....

    Crash Test Dummies performed Superman's Song in KBCO Studio C so it got a lot of play in Boulder and Denver. My favorite CTD song.

  9. C.... H....

    This is spectacular. I wish they would make more, tour more. 'Songs of the unforgiven' is probably my favorite album of theirs.

  10. A.... H....

    We are going to see Crash Test Dummies this month in Tampa, FL. Can not wait. This voice. WOW. Brad Roberts sings from the heart.

  11. j.... ....

    Why does this only have 14k views? This music takes me to a time and place that he expresses so beautifully.

  16. J.... B....

    15:14 That's as good a Guitar accompaniment as I've heard.

  17. M.... E....

    The days of my youth. It's delicious!

  18. A.... F....

    Back in the day when my dad heard me play my Crash Test Dummies tape he said it sounded like “Simon & Garfunkel singing in the cellar.” So how fitting it is that Brad is singing in a wine cellar several years later.

  19. R.... S....

    O falsete do cara é minha voz normal hahahaha!

  20. M.... K....

    Been following you for over 20 years. A lot of awesome memories with your wit and wisdom.

    So glad I found this. One of my favorite groups. ELO, Crash Test Dummies, Blue October, Kings of Leon and Imagine Dragons. Brad you sound better than ever. Hope to see you someday.

  25. R.... P....

    Superman the best.

  26. R.... H....

    Always loved this band! His voice is golden! What brand guitar is that?

  34. D.... T....

    19:05 you're welcome

  35. S.... F....

    This is awesome. Listening to this makes me realize how much my musical (and lyrical) taste was inspired by CTD.

  36. h.... p....

    Dam Stuart can play! Great Team!

  37. M.... B....

    Hey Stuart: What tuning is your guitar in on the song "Superman"? You guys are great. Come to Phoenix please. You would sound great at the Music Instrument Museum stage!

    M.... B....

    I just use standard tuning for MMM

    M.... B....

    Thanks a lot Stuart. I've listened to this post a lot. You're such a tasteful/great guitar player!

    M.... B....

    Stuart Cameron fabulous guitar playing

  41. d.... ....

    beautiful

  42. J.... H....

    The greatest band on earth. Amazing. Please never stop making music. Love the new stuff also. His voice is incomparable to any other male bass. So talented and gifted. I wish they would do every song they had in a set like this.

    J.... H....

    I'd love to have heard Brad sing knights & Maidens

  43. p.... ....

    The Psychic is the best song ever, please do that live and post!

    p.... ....

    It's so weird that they've never done that one live :((((((

    Would love to hear it...

    p.... ....

    pophams8 hahahaha hahahah. How sad that you feel that way

    p.... ....

    Roberts has so many good songs, but I understand the feeling - I've loved all the songs hes made at one point or another and thought they were the single redeeming thing in the world. Funny how one can differ and at the same time agree - sadder never to see that. "You dont have to believe me"... :)

  44. F.... D....

    Uno dei più grandi cantautori di tutti i tempi

  45. P.... W....

    Brilliant. Please keep blessing us with your talent

  46. R.... ....

    Egg scum sent me here

  47. G.... ....

    Thanks.

  48. G.... B....

    Que lindo volver a ver a Brad en este nivel, y haciendo estos temazos.. Muy feliz

  49. C.... W....

    I caught Mr. Cameron and Mr. Roberts last night on their tour across Western Canada. One of the most memorable and beautiful shows I've seen in ages. Thank the both of you for a truly incredible performance. Absolutely legendary.

  50. W.... ....

    amazing!
