The streets are filled with violence,
your room of cheap perfume,
let's sleep this off together
and wait till the madness is through.
Another year is over,
another chance has passed,
another cartoon president,
how long will this madness last?
Because every dream of the future
is a ******* nightmare now and
the second Berlin Wall will fall
before it even stands.
So hold me close now
and we'll let this moment stay,
we'll hold onto the finer things
that they can't take away.
I don't know which way to turn,
I know the left isn't always right,
but this life is a **** sight easier
if your skin is pure and white.
Now the police are the criminals,
spilling lies, they speak in tongues,
we'll happily drink down their poison
so long as we all own a gun.
So hold me close now
and we'll let this moment stay,
we'll hold onto the finer things
that they can't take away.
Another year is over,
another chance has passed.
This empire is built on shifting sands
and nothing is built to last.
Another cartoon president,
at least he'll take our country back.
Another cartoon president,
red, white and blue
unless your skin is black.
A song I wrote after a lot of whiskey and not a lot of time.
