| It could have been just like any other day.
|
| If not for the drug raids.
|
| They seemed so normal as they were cuffed and hauled away.
|
| Who could have thought?
|
| We should have know.
|
| Such a nice family, but it’s all a show.
|
| It could have been just like any other day
|
| If not for the blood in the rain.
|
| It could havev been just your everyday commute.
|
| And then I heard the sirens and i flipped on the news
|
| «Disobedient civilians have all lanes damned,
|
| Arrests are being made, wrists are being slapped»
|
| So I cranked down the window as I rolled past:
|
| «Get a boss, take a bath.»
|
| That’s what the others shouted while I blared the horn,
|
| With my fist in the air and my gas to the floor.
|
| (Chorus)
|
| Give me death or give me rain.
|
| I feel so numb better give me pain.
|
| Bomb threats and hurricanes,
|
| Or a new berry flaor from the coffee tray…
|
| It could have been just your forgotten school day,
|
| If not for the drills and the bells that saved.
|
| The fire started some place cool and safe.
|
| Who could have thought?
|
| We should have known!
|
| «Thousands dead!"the leaders spoke.
|
| I pulled at their cuffs
|
| While they were at each other’s throats:
|
| «Does this mean I get to go home?»
|
| Chorus
|
| Liberty is too much strain.
|
| It could have been like any other day,
|
| If not for the blood in the rain. |
