Rancid - Whirlwind lyrics
[Rancid - Whirlwind lyrics]
The blood breaks down
An avenue or a boulevard and a
Boy who wears a crown
Indigent lifestyles imply lack of means
Dogmatical authoritarians dictate the
A promise to go to heaven
Won't put salvation in sight
Whirlwind is coming whirlwind is coming
A promise to go to heaven
Won't put salvation in sight
Whirlwind is coming down on me
When the factory shut down so
Did the place he lived
Blood money for junk bonds by
A white collar fugitive
All the tax free incentives ain't
Going to help him now
Five generations of job security gone out
Like the horse and plow
A promise to go to heaven
Won't put salvation in sight
Whirlwind is coming whirlwind is coming
A promise to go to heaven
Won't put salvation in sight
Whirlwind is coming down on me
My old man worked his troubled life
In a nowhere dead end job
He drank the pain away
I'll be damned if that's me
Having my dreams robbed
The working class carries a country that
Has been rotting inside for years
The pigs cuffed my old man in the front yard
I saw through eyes of tears
Whirlwind is coming whirlwind is coming
A promise to go to heaven
Won't put salvation in sight
Whirlwind is coming down on me
