lyrics

In a trance
With some romance
Of an invented past
That had no place for class
And that half-glass
Is just about empty
Finished off by the comfortable
And more:
The all-American battered

The hustlers prance at the lecterns
To hoard the awards
And dance around issues
There’s no result on a table
That doesn’t fit the fable
The certified lie
Twisted and bright
The endless reprise
Of Morning in America

Wave a flag in their eyes
They see what they want
And what they want to despise
A bull in the ring
Chasing a thing
That’s dying
The ultratech ADD
where the secret police
lay an app at your feet
Psychopathic patriots arise
In a genocidal dance
Walking around in trace

Big brother on reality TV
We find repression so entertaining
The predictive graph shocking and raw
Eye for an eye and
we’re all-American blind

Wave a flag in their eyes
They see what they want
And what they want to revise
A bull in the ring
Chasing a thing
That’s dying
With backdoor to the datastream
where a government host
logs your likes and posts
the patriots who set the bar
at a murderous stance
Walking around in trace

The litmus test is here
With confederate flags
and redneck beer
Tailgate at the private pen
For the curse of their skin
And the bad luck of birth
Of the all-American man

Wave a flag in their eyes
They see what they want
And what they want to despise
A bull in the ring
Chasing a thing
That’s dying
A backdoor to the datastream
where a government host
logs your likes and posts
the patriots who set the bar
at a murderous stance
Walking around in trace

VIC BONDI Seattle, Washington

I've been playing music for forty years--since the beginnings of the American hardcore punk movement in the 1980s. This band camp site is where I make a variety of my non-band project experiments available--solo tracks; covers; movie soundtracks, etc. Most of it is not hardcore. For that, see the links below. ... more
