"Born In The Right Country" lyrics
"Born In The Right Country"
I am your new king
Can't you see the teeth laid in this crown?
The past now is present
I am the inside and you're out
I'll tell you baby a secret
Manufactured truth is easy to sell
When you own the factory
And you own the hearts of the clientele
Can you really blame me
Built on a system where some must fail
So that you can break through
If you've got the right skin
Or you're born in the right country
Or you're born in the right country
Don't you know you're lucky, kid?
You were raised on the right side of town
Born rich now you're yelling
"I've seen the inside and you're out"
But can I truly blame you?
We're built on the dreams we feed to the poor
So that you can break through
If you've got the right name
Or you've got the right god
Or you're born in the right country
Or you're born in the right country

I'd spend all my days...
Sumbuck - "Spin" I'm a blank book, oh honey won't you colour me in
Gave a blank look
Like "honey, what're you saying again?"
And I mistook every letter in your name
I'm a blank book, oh and honey your filling me in...
Wilderado - "Wheat" We grow wheat
That's what we're told we need
But we can't afford it now
We got our habits to feed
They gotta eat wheat
Hello, Latigo
You're looking good in your cloudy coat
We can go winding slow on...
Ezra Bell - "You Go Out And Dig" From your twisted sense of reason
From that lonesome hollow place
We'll return to every evening
With the floodlights all ablaze
Along the sharp end of the sidewalk

Beyond memories bitter...
Bahamas - "Stronger Than That" How in the hell does one heart swell
To the size of beast with a bark like a big kick drum
Tell me what does it take to get a mouth that makes
Every old man around you to seem so young
And I know,...
