Rerecorded at Aerosol for great quality, this is a favorite song of the band. Kind of surf rock-ish. One of te songs me and Arron had done before Mercy and Scott joined.
punk garage rock ska alte
My spirit, contained but not broken
Is tearing at the seams of my mind
How much longer must I live like this?
I wish I was still young and blind
Close your eyes child, keep them shut
For that is the American way
Cover your ears child, keep them plugged
Don’t listen to what I have to say
That is the American way
We’re raised on pride and ignorance
Desensitized, demoralized
We’re given every luxury
Dehumanized and sterilized
Close your eyes child, keep them shut
For that is the American way
Cover your ears child, keep them plugged
Don’t listen to what I have to say
That is the American way
Now be a good little corporate whore
Do exactly what they tell you
Cuz they’ve got you on their little rope
And you’re convinced they’re working for you
Close your eyes child, keep them shut
For that is the American way
Cover your ears child, keep them plugged
Don’t listen to what I have to say
That is the American way
