Intro/Western Apathy Songtext
I'm sittin' out here at the age of 18
and the world ain't that bad, but it sure ain't what it seems
I look to the sky, it turns green
the heroes in the West are shinin' their shoes
they say "I'm sorry if you're starvin' but a day's another dollar
and I don't have time for you,
got better things to do"

Your women are raped and there's mass genocide
but there's a turkey on the table and I got a new car
it sure looks good in green
there's blood on your hands from the people you love
sure is unfair but might as we be dirt to us

THE WORLD DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU
HELL NO, GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO

Well I seen it before, hell I seen it plenty
different country, same goddamn story
the fast pace world's leavin' you behind
your government sanctioned an ethnic war
and sure is unfair, but where's the oil for us?
(So God bless, and good luck)

THE WORLD DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU
HELL NO, GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO

Well all I got here is this goddamn guitar
and a voice that couldn't carry me far
but I'll tell your story if they kill me!
I said I'll tell your story if it kills me!

THE WORLD DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU
HELL NO, GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO
