Lyrics
Urban Cowboy
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.
Shit faced and drunk and it's time to fight
Blow off some steam, you've been waiting all night
Ride real tall but not on a horse
Act like a fascist, don't show no remorse
So you've got what you want and take what you need
You're such a man and a real man always succeeds
Shit faced and drunk and it's time to fight
Blow off some steam, you've been waiting all night
Beat up your wife when you've got nothing to do
You're such a hero, red white and blue
Dress up in white and worship the clan
Degrading others makes you feel like a man
Beat up your wife when you've got nothing to do
You're such a hero, red white and blue
Every night you get ready for a night out of town
And just like Glenn Campbell you dress up like a clown
With rhinestones and leather, your hat down over your eyes
And all of your buddies are wearing the same disguise
And the gals will love you as you walk by on parade
Shit faced and drunk and it's time to fight
Blow off some steam, you've been waiting all night
Beat up your wife when you've got nothing to do
You're such a hero, red white and blue
1984
Big Brother is watching, he controls and manipulates you
Can't you see what's going on. Here today, tomorrow you're gone
So now you feel safe 'cause you're controlled
So free just doing what you're told
It's great to have a reason to exist
Not a person but a number on a list
So go to work and don't complain; you're not paid to use your brain
Don't ask questions just do your job and fit right in your little slot
So go to work
and do your job
then watch TV
and cease to be
Well they know what's best for you; government, industry, religion too
They use you up and spit you out; it's 1984 without a doubt
Big Brother is watching you, he knows about everything you do
Just fit the mould and you'll be fine; living for them what a waste of time
