[Manic Street Preachers - Dead Yankee Drawl lyrics]

Bill and Ted and Wayne's World drawl
Just another dull fucking bore
Vietnam's cool now even Superman's believed
Hussein still in power as
The media war retreats

Suck your honey until you choke
You are a mechanism of social control
Multi national aim of one world culture
Turning one dollar into another and another

Dead yankee drawl hey we got your beat
Dead yankee drawl hey we love Oscar
Smothering injustice seen through
Starving eyes
Tearing down forests just to earn a buck

Killed off literature for sex and violence
Fed a generation the equivalent of silence
Dragged jack down to self same bigotry
Passive acceptance of a consumer society



Fake sentiments tying up contracts
Making idols of guitars and haircuts
Multi national aim of one world culture
Turning one dollar into another and another

Dead yankee drawl hey we got your beat
Dead yankee drawl hey we love Oscar
Smothering injustice seen through
Red Indian eyes
Silent race war of sweet Hollywood lies

Let's go down to Greenwich
Village and desecrate
The no raid slogans that
Justify 6 countries hate

Let's go down Redondo beach
And wax body company
Cos reality for TV is Disney, not King
Rodney

Let's go down to Indiana youth centre quickly
Tyson's money ain't as free
As junior Kennedys

Dead yankee dead yankee dead yankee drawl
