Lyrics Songs About Roses - Owl John, Scott Hutchison, Andy Monaghan

Songs About Roses

Dedicate a life to the dying breed
Throw a punch into the face of vacant leaders and leave
Chloroform the singer who has nothing to say
Stare in wonder as the masses sing along anyway
Pull apart the actors pretending to grieve
They never went to the funeral, and they never believed.
Shack your burning placard in the government lawns
Have faith that there is consequence in protest songs
Bulldoze the pedestrian blues and the baize
And those only right to get blown and get paid
Songs about roses and poisonous lies
Every last rose says your not even trying.
When nobody asks you and nobody cares
If we never here another song about roses again.
We don’t need songs about roses
We don’t need your terrible blues
We don’t need songs about roses
Please sing me something new.
We don’t need songs about roses
We don’t need your terrible blues
We don’t need songs about roses
All that we ask for is truth.
