lyrics

I was over at that place one day, friend of mine come by, here’s what he say: “Is it true you love America, where the white men are above the law? Where the small merchant cannot compete when the Wal-Mart moves across the street? Where the downtown market's boarded up (I hear the stock market can’t stop going up!)? Where the only things we can afford are fattening foods bought at the dollar store? While our dream of being warm and free is used by billionaires to wipe their feet."

Yes it’s true you love America once you see the way Walt Whitman saw last night I dreamed you were the Pleiades and this morning down among the leaves I tasted salt blown from the sea suddenly I prized my liberty I love Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson, Iggy Pop and NASA’s Space Program. And though I sense the signal weakening, I pray one day you find the strength to sing.
