lyrics

Siphon off some gas from the continental artificial vein
In the early hours before dirt felt rain
Surrounded by tenets of love's little cowards
Monetarily theistic and willed to power
By those who seek to take all my opportunity
And leave me with not one shred of dignity

Now there's a table set, only a few will eat
Bread burns as it's bartered in the street
All it's blessings lifted from needy tongues
To feed the poor the rich exploit the foreign and the young
Standing in the market where bodies are sold, or stacked in the garage
Waiting for the fall of the mirage

Now I've been in four different Cubas, and a dozen red states
Where thieves of broken dream pick their running mates
Walking the street hoping for a miracle
hoping for a miracle
