All-American Apathy
I'll wait a little longer It's not a pressing matter yet So effort makes you stronger See if I care when I'm second best Drown out the childish laughter Leave all the dying in the street My fears are compromised in defeat It's the All-American apathy I can feel I can feel it trying to get to me We fell asleep to the war on tv Now it's get now it's get now it's getting to me Let's drink the rivers dry With purple majesty We'll lock up all the sinners Then we'll be truely free In the middle of the night it feels so right To give it all up without a fight Justice is blind and so are we It's the All-American apathy I can feel I can feel it trying to get to me We fell asleep to the war on tv SongtexteNow it's get now it's get now it's getting to me I don't care what colours you wear As long as you look like a star And I won't shout when my say doesn't count That's what majorities are for And I won't mind when I'm doing time For being exactly who I am And damned if I cry when we stop wondering why All the people are the same It's like we don't even have a name It's the All-American apathy I can feel I can feel it trying to get to me We fell asleep to the war on tv Now it's get now it's get now it's getting to me Aus Songtexte Mania
