Babies in Cages |
| The world wakes up this morning, I’m sorry for the news |
| Wrapped up in a tinfoil blanket without any shoes |
| Babies in cages |
| I’m sorry to my children, I’m sorry what they see |
| I’m sorry for the world that they’ll inherit from me |
| Babies in cages |
| Are we so divided that we can’t at least agree |
| This ain’t the country that our granddads fought for us to be? |
| Babies in cages |
| Surf’s up in the cities where the next wars will be fought |
| I’m sorry we’ve forsaken every word that we were taught |
| Babies in cages |
| I bang my head against it, smash guitars, and scream and shout |
| Standing on the beach watching the tide go out |
| Babies in cages |
| Standing in the darkness to answer for our sins |
| Children changing each others diapers in a pen |
| Babies in cages |
| Well look up from the heavens, calculate the cost |
| Souls cry out for the better angels we have lost |
| Well look up from the heavens, calculate the cost |
| Souls cry out for the better angels we have lost |
