Face the face, got to face the face
Face the face, got to face the face
You must have heard the cautionary tales
The dangers hidden on the cul-de-sac trails
From wiser men who've been through it all
And the ghosts of failures spray-canned up on the wall
We've got to judge the judge
Got to find the finds
We've got to scheme the schemes
Have to line the lines
We must stake the stakes
And show the shown
We must take the takes
And know the known
Try to place the place
Where we can face the face.
We got to face the face
Try to place the place
Where we can face the face
Face the face,got to face the face.
Face the face,got to face the face.
Got to
Got to
You must have tried and defied belief
Maybe found futility in insular grief
I need your hunger you need mine
A million appetites can swallow up time.
We've got to fool the fools
We got to plan the plans
We got to rule the rules
We got to stand the stands
We got to fight the fight
We must fall the falls
We got to light the light
We got to call the calls
We must race the race
So we can face the face
We got to race the race
We must race the race
So we can face the face
Face the face
We got to face the face
We got to race the race
We got to
Keep looking
New York! Chicago!
London and Glasgow!
Keep looking!
Keep on looking
Keep on cooking
Got to stay on this case
Study the pix
Watch the flix
We've got to find the face.
Face the face ,got to face the face
Watch the flix
Got to
We've got to judge the judge
We got to find the finds
We've got to scheme the schemes
We got to line the lines
We got to fight the fight
We got to fall the falls
We got to light the light
We got to call the calls
Try to place the place
Where we can face the face.
We got to face the face
Try to place the place
Where we can face the face.
Try to place the place
Where we can face the face.
Keep looking, keep looking
We must race the race
So we can face the face.
We got to race the race
We must race the race.
So we can face the face
We got to face the face
We got to race the race
Face the face, got to face the face

+2General Commentthis song is truly great the buildup the instrumental solos, the way the whole song sounds like hes just stuffing around and having a good time everything about this is fantastic...anyway meaning i think its pretty obviously about facing adversary in life (race the race = life, face the face = facing the situations thrown at us within the 'race') but thats just me...

0My InterpretationWhile I do believe it does have to do with living and striving, I think there is something more to it like finding,facing and correcting things that are wrong either socially or morally. some of lyrics sound like bureaucratic or govt !@#$ people deciding how to pull on over on the populous (me and you) and some lyrics sound like a clever call to arms (come on people lets get to work and undo the crap that has been forced upon us) kind of like he sets up the (Pete) sets up the case (what has been done) and sets forth what we need to do "Try to place the place Where we can face the face." I think the "face" we have "to face" is adversity in the form of morally corrupt laws or practicesjjkogel01on November 04, 2019 Link
