Hey remember all those

Psychedelic nights

When your head come loose

And floated into the lights

And all them girls

Without any tops at all

Down in the dirt uhhh huhh

After the fall

And remember how all the

Fantasies worked

Little flags in front of the tract homes

By the church

It暯 a wonder anything暯 left

To hurt at all

Down in the dirt uhhh huhh

After the fall

Yea

Remember the flower children

And their shit-eating grins

Wearing buckskin building teepees

Trying to be indians

An remember the reservation

With the drunks against the wall

Peddling turquoise to the tourists

Down in the dirt uhhh huhh

After the fall

Remember the holy road

Running red

With blood from the mouths of mystics

When they said

Let暯 eat flesh from the knees of jesus

While he crawls

Down in the dirt uhhh huhh

After the fall

Yeah

Remember the christian soldiers

Armed to the teeth beneath the stars

Watching the jungle burn

From beside their armored cars

We saw it all on tv

While we ate just what we saw

So we could partake in history

Without our names on the wall or

Down in the dirt uhhh huhh

After the fall

(repeat first verse)
