This Happened Yesterday Songtext
Fill this country home
with cordless telephones.
Fill this empty mind
with everything you find.
Take the trigger, pull it.
Shoot the healing bullet.
A disappointing life
cuts you like a knife.

Plan for the next disaster.
We'll pledge allegiance after.
You wield your powers slowly,
build walls that keep on growing.

Meet your destiny,
careless make-believe.
Listen to the words.
Unlock the twisted curse.
Watch for signs that say
this happened yesterday.
Build your house upon
the sand and ask what's wrong.

Plan for the next disaster.
We'll pledge allegiance after.
You wield your powers slowly,
build walls that keep on growing.

Take a good long look.
Read a feel-good book. This concrete missionary
is more than I can carry.
Kill your inner dreams,
but life goes on it seems.
Blew your candles out,
but how'd your wish turn out?

Plan for the next disaster.
We'll pledge allegiance after.
You wield your powers slowly,
build walls that keep on growing.

And when you reach the end,
don't forget to send
a letter back to me.
Tell me what you see.
'Cause we're not thinking straight.
I hope it's not too late.
