Song information On this page you can find the lyrics of the song Mourning in America, artist - Ted Leo and the Pharmacists. Album song The Brutalist Bricks, in the genre АльтернативаMourning in America |
| Shhhh--A white face in a white crowd |
| The day, it starts, and it gets harder just to stand out |
| Someone everyone organically can hang with |
| Or someone cynically manipulating language |
| Whoever told you that we needed you to be this? |
| We’ve all been sold a bill of goods if we believe it |
| Another warning from the well of true believers-- |
| There will be mourning in America, and we say… |
| Hey! |
| Hey! |
| Hey! |
| You summon ghosts we tried to bury in their white shrouds |
| With burning cross and bloody crescent in the White House |
| You come on something like the faces I remember-- |
| 1980, Mississippi rising from the ash and embers |
| Never, now, can I imagine me forgiving you |
| Never, now, can I imagine how to live with you |
| Another warning from the lake of people bleeding-- |
| There will be mourning in America if you keep it up… |
| Hey! |
| Hey! |
| Hey! |
| Up from the sultry air of the South of a time gone by |
| To your mercurial mouth |
| And where the busses in Boston that have idled for years |
| Ride the line to Orange County and the fare is the fears |
| Of the long manipulated and the wilfully dumb |
| You better watch what you ask for |
| 'Cause someday, it might just come |
