Sleep Through The Static

歌詞

Trouble travels fast When you're specially designed for crash testing Or wearing wool sunglasses in the afternoon Come on and tell us what you're trying to prove Because it's a battle when you dabble in war You store it up unleash it then you piece it together Whether the storm drain running rampant just stamp it And send it to somebody who's pretending to care Just cash in your blanks for little toy tanks Learn how to use them then abuse them and choose them Over conversations relationships are overrated I hated everyone said the sun And so I will cook all your books You're too good looking and mistooken You could watch it instead From the comfort of your burning beds Or you can sleep through the static Who needs sleep when we've got love Who needs keys when we've got clubs Who needs please when we've got guns Who needs peace when we've gone above But beyond where we should have gone We went beyond where we should have gone Stuck between channels my thoughts all quit I thought about them too much allowed them to touch The feelings that rained down on the plains all dried and cracked Waiting for things that never came Shock and awful thing to make somebody think That they have to choose pushing for peace supporting the troops And either you're weak or you'll use brut force-feed the truth The truth is we say not as we do We say anytime anywhere just show your teeth and strike the fear Of god wears camouflage cries at night and drives a dodge Pick up the beat and stop hogging the feast That's no way to treat an enemy Well mighty mighty appetite we just eat eem up and keep on driving Freedom can be freezing take a picture from the pretty side Mind your manners wave your banners What a wonderful world that this angle can see But who needs to see what we've done Who needs please when we've got guns Who needs keys when we've got clubs Who needs peace when we've gone above But beyond where we should have gone Beyond where we should have gone We went beyond where we should have gone Beyond where we should have gone
