He heard one day, of people that do have This parcel of nothing locked inside That swells as time crawls endlessly ahead And drowns in a mirage you never reach.
He dreams of knowing what to dream of. Oh, Mother Mary come to me. The heat stretches his stomache, Like a balloon ready to ascend.
A screen is staring at a stuffed couch, The image is a falling sky. A cloud of ash blurs the screen: This is the end of the world.
But from nowhere, Surges the man of solutions. We will fight the devil! The man spends millions and millions and millions And millions of schools And millions of roads And millions of books And millions of clothes And millions of toys And millions of shoes And millions of food And millions of homes As he goes to destroy, yet again and again, The usual innocents of war That would have dreamed to live The lives of three thousand. But this is what you get when you mess with us.
He dies one morning, His head blown up By the dreams that never came.
A man sticks a sticker on his car: God Bless America He smiles and feels so (proud).
Kids put their right hand on their heart We pledge allegiance to the flag They smile and feel so (proud).
