Broke
My
Fucking
Heart"
The
American
Dream (
Weasel)
Oh say can you see the star spangled banner flying can you see everyone holdinghands and brightly smiling well
I see rioting and
I see bodies in the streetsin the future of the american dream
I can see the american dream
Mary
Was an
Anarchist (
Weasel)
Mary was a girl with a cause she was simply fed up mary moved out to berkeleyand stuck pins her face as a sort of statement against oppression of her sexmary took a walk in the park with a sign in her hand mary threw a rock at acop and man she felt like a man and you know the ugliness became her but nowshe's gone she couldn't take it anymore and what's she won she won a husbandwho embodies everything she hated and all her friends from years ago areselling stocks in ibm right on mary finally saw she couldn't change the worldbut mary often fondly looks back and pats herself on the back for a convenientromanticized version of the facts of what she'd done but she didn't change agoddamn single on of the oppressive pigs who made her what she was and theempowerment she felt was just a crumb compared to all the butts of jokesthat she'd become and now she's at the kitchen table all alone and she endedup exactly like her mom
Around
On
You (
Weasel/
Vapid)
You think you've got something over some kinda thing over me well there's gonnacome a day when
I can leave it all behind if you'd open up your eyes you'd seethat doing all the stupid things that you do means there's gonna come a daywhen you're gonna fade away and it's gonna come around on you you'll becrying slowly dying when the day comes creeping up on you there will be a daywhen you won't believe it's true it's gonna come around on you
Goodbye to
You (
Weasel/
Vapid)
Goodbye to you and the stupid things you do goodbye to you goodbye toeverything that you do goodbye to you it's always goodbye to you
