Lyrics
American Apologies
Revolution coming to keep you on your toes
Like nothing you've ever seen on any TV show
I've got a bouquet of roses and a bottle of gin
Living in America the land of instant saints and sins
And if it's roses you want you've gotta pick between the thorns
Ain't met a person yet too perfect to be reborn
And all along you thought that you could walk away
Gotta pull it together darling, cause the weather's bound to change
And you thought you lived
In the land of the free
And you thought you lived
in the land of equality
You thought where democracy was guaranteed
Stolen lives, stolen lands
Stolen history
Evolution coming maybe wipe the whole slate clean
Like nothing any human monkey has ever seen
Don't forget to love
You're living in America
And you thought you lived
In the land of the free
And you thought you lived
in the land of equality
You thought where democracy was guaranteed
Stolen lives, stolen lands
Stolen history
