The people will survive In their environment The dirt, scarcity, and emptiness Of our South The injustices of our greed The practices we merit The dirt, scarcity and emptiness Of our South There on the beach I could see it in her eyes I only had a Corona Five cents deposit
Burned-out wreck spotted on the beach A symbol of my life how can I believe in books When by heart lies to me? I'm full of shit! Bumming real hard on cold steel facts - I'm full of shit!
a ton of white boy guilt, that's my problem - obstacle to joy (one reason for drugs) slept on a mexican beach, slept in trash (american trash) thinking too much can ruin a good time. I asked a mexican who ran a bar for americans "who won" I said "the election?" he laughed and I felt like a gringo - we paid for a song and they had fun with us. why can't you buy a good time? why are there soldiers in the streets? why did I spend the fourth in someone else's country?
Caught by a camera taken at shutter speed, my neck's in a knot, two beads at the end. Bolt cutters close, my head rolls again -- trapped in your snare, voices fly at me. Snap like a tiger, strikes like a snake -- feel like a poker in someone's fireplace.
Who'll take the salt from the mines? Who'll take the dirt from the earth? Who'll take the leaf and grow it to a tree? Don't look now, it ain't you or me.
Who'll work the fields with his hands? Who'll put his back to the plow? Who'll take the mountain and give it to the sea? Don't look now, it ain't you or me.
Don't look now, someone's done your starving. Don't look now, someone's done your praying.
Who'll make the shoes for your feet? Who'll make the clothes that you wear? Who'll take the promise that you don't gotta keep? Don't look now, it ain't you or me.
Who'll take the promise that you don't gotta keep? Don't look now, it ain't you or me.
Let the products sell themselves. Fuck advertising, commercial psychology, Psychological methods to sell should be destroyed.
Because of their own blind involvement in their own conditioned minds... The unit bonded together... morals, ideals, awareness, progress... Let yourself be heard!
