Days Like These (DC Remix)

歌詞

it's morning in America and you can be your best You have a valid credit card and can pass a urine test And it's midnight in El Salvador they're spending dollars in your name It's no bloody consolation Reagan cannot run again They'll trade with the Ayatollah If they can't convince Congress That the only type of patriot is an anti-communist And I shake my head and wonder what would Joe McCarthy say if he could walk through downtown Washington DC today The CIA on campus are taking down some names Inviting folks to join them in their coke and dagger games And does it ever prick your conscience as we are the world you see when you know today we're so far away from the dreams of Martin Luther King The brotherhood of the elephant and the party of the arse are desperate for contestants to take part in the farce of selling democracy down the tubes with the ad man's expertise The majority by their silence will pay for days like these Peace, bread, work and freedom are the best we can achieve Wearing badges is not enough In days like these
