Bob Mould - American Crisis lyrics
[Bob Mould - American Crisis lyrics]
Argh! No!
I never thought I'd see this bullshit again
To come of age in the '80s was bad enough
We were marginalized and demonized
I watched a lot of my generation die
Welcome back to "American Crisis"
No telling what the price is
Wake up every day to see a nation in flames
We click and we tweet and we
Spread these tales of blame
Here's the newest American crisis
Thanks to the "evangelical ISIS"
People suffer in the streets each day
While you take a little change
From the offering tray
It's another American crisis
You can see how the lie divide us
World turning darker every day
In a fucked up USA
Can you look in the mirror
And tell me everything's alright?
This American crisis keeps me
Wide awake at night
You're one of us or one of them
If you're one of them
Don't come near me again
Ringing in my head only goes away
When I yell all the things
That I shouldn't say
Ringing in my head never goes away! Argh!
Pro-Life, pro-Life
Until you make it in someone else's wife
You'll be struck down in
Your house of corruption
Free speech, free speech
Got stolen by a pack of thieves
This American Crisis keeps me
Wide awake at night
You're one of us or one of them
If you're one of them
Don't come near me again
Silence was death never forget
Silence was death silence
Huh, huh, huh, huh huh, huh, huh
I never thought I'd see this bullshit again
To come of age in the '80s was bad enough
We were marginalized and demonized
I watched a lot of my generation die
Welcome back to "American Crisis"
No telling what the price is
Wake up every day to see a nation in flames
We click and we tweet and we
Spread these tales of blame
Here's the newest American crisis
Thanks to the "evangelical ISIS"
People suffer in the streets each day
While you take a little change
From the offering tray
It's another American crisis
You can see how the lie divide us
World turning darker every day
In a fucked up USA
Can you look in the mirror
And tell me everything's alright?
This American crisis keeps me
Wide awake at night
You're one of us or one of them
If you're one of them
Don't come near me again
Ringing in my head only goes away
When I yell all the things
That I shouldn't say
Ringing in my head never goes away! Argh!
Pro-Life, pro-Life
Until you make it in someone else's wife
You'll be struck down in

Silence was death never forget
Silence was death silence
Huh, huh, huh, huh huh, huh, huh
