I saw you taking money from the land of milk and honey Groping on a Playboy Bunny The children walk the streets at night They learn to run or learn to fight Men who speak the truth are shot God knows when we’ll stop the rot Wouldn’t it be good to say our generations saved the day We’re just a lot of frightened men Who made a world of us and them With nothing to sing, nothing to say ….. |
