Flag And Family |
Your daddy and my daddy had a drink at the bar |
Talking about what was best for me Without a name or a degree, |
Stubbornly holding onto you |
And you pulling away from me The best that they could say, |
For my restless teenage ways, |
Was time in the service |
Might serve me well, |
Even if it’s just service in The latrines |
Lucy my love, |
Don’t go sending me off to war |
I put up with your family, |
Full of bigots and fanatics, |
Just to get a little closer to you, |
Now you’ve turned on me too |
You have turned on me too. |
Go hide behind your flag and family |
This town has nothing left for me This town is nothing more |
Than a fundamentalist penitentiary |
When you’re down on your knees |
Are you praying for holy war? |
When you’re down on your knees |
Are you praying for holy war? |
Lucy my love, |
Don’t go sending me off to war |
We must live, |
We must true, |
To our childhood dreams, |
Or they’re worthless |
And our youth is insincere |
So where do we find worth? |
I put up with your family, |
Full of bigots and fanatics, |
Just to get a little closer to you, |
Now you’ve turned on me too |
You have turned on me too. |
When you’re down on your knees |
Are you praying for holy war? |
When you’re down on your knees |
Are you praying for holy war? |
Lucy my love, |
Don’t go sending me off to war |
We must live, |
We must true, |
To our childhood dreams, |
Or they are worthless |
And our youth is insincere |
So where do we find worth? |
