Burn
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Beautiful to live in poverty
Just to spite what they're selling
Take a thousand hits to prove the rest and I'll move in
Millimeters still won't mean shit against well-done subversion
Fathers of invention will one day turn in their graves
When their own sons and daughters
Manifest destiny into a lesson to others
? my cripple ? categorize their deathcamps, they're all dead ?
Chorus
Burn Burn Burn
Like they did to the Anarchists at their stakes
And Burn Burn Burn
The histories they stole from us
One day patriotic thugs will dance to songs of justice
And courage, and wreck guns of shame.
Chorus (again)
Well it may take a team of well-rounded hoodlums
In full riot gear to unrest objection
A well-controlled media to pick out our terrorists
When beaurocrats start dying from cancer
There are already businessmen who'll market bottled water
And purified aerosol solution, guess who's their target
Seven approaching a measure off the map
And you'll see me dance in the street once again
Chorus x2
And it'll Burn Burn Burn like they did to the Anarchists
And it'll Burn Burn Burn like the histories they stole from us
One day patriotic thugs will dance to songs of justice
And give apologies for a miserably acted perfection
Chorus x2
