Banana Republic |
Banana Republic |
Septic Isle |
Screaming in the Suffering sea |
It sounds like crying |
Everywhere I go |
Everywhere I see |
The black and blue uniforms |
Police and priests |
And I wonder do you wonder |
While you’re sleeping with your whore |
That sharing beds with history |
Is like a-licking running sores |
Forty shades of green yeah |
Sixty shades of red |
Heroes going cheap these days |
Price; |
a bullet in the head |
Banana Republic |
Septic Isle |
Suffer in the Screaming sea |
It sounds like dying |
Everywhere I go |
Everywhere I see |
The black and blue uniforms |
Police and priests |
Take your hand and lead you |
Up a garden path |
Let me stand aside here |
And watch you pass |
Striking up a soldier’s song |
I know that tune |
It begs too many questions |
And answers to, |
Banana Republic |
Septic Isle |
Suffer in the Screaming sea |
It sounds like dying |
Everywhere I go |
Everywhere I see |
The black and blue uniforms |
Police and priests |
The purple and the pinstripe |
Mutely shake their heads |
A silence shrieking volumes |
A violence worse than the condemn |
Stab you in the back yeah |
Laughing in your face |
Glad to see the place again |
It’s a pitty nothing’s changed |
Banana Republic |
Septic Isle |
Suffer in the Screaming sea |
It sounds like dying |
Everywhere I go |
Everywhere I see |
The black and blue uniforms |
Police and priests |
