Bad Religion: The Streets Of America

aus dem Album: The Gray Race

Songtext:
desolate and without purpose Klebefolien fuer Autos
radiating from so many septic sources
forming the fabric of a wayward people
disappearing as the vestiges of our past frau holle

scratched like tartan into virgin soil
a substrate for progress and disarray Briefpapier Weihnachten
a spreading network of broken dreams
searching for a thoroughfare to take us away
Basteln mit Kleinkindern
just a little tale from the streets of America (say a little prayer)
sparkled promises paved with pathos and hysteria
trenchant, weary native sons Immobilien Krefeld
step back
and see the damage done
meander to the horizon (shoot straight to the horizon) hotel kitzbuehl
the streets of America

black, tarred concrete Immobilien Bonn
pine for me
lying domant
for you and country Denkmalschutzimmobilien
hardened surface
cracked within
catch the sweat Fruchtextrakte
from off the chin

of men and women Kudzu
senior and child
who look to you
and your sterile miles
and in their stares
is bald dismay
for what you promised
led them astray

hard-cracked, daunting, lifeless veins
false hope corridors to greener pastures is all that remains
