I made my way back home from
Each new place
I've seen so many things
And they're still stuck on my face
I ain't gonna lie I've changed
But what is there to do?
I just want my coffee, my paper, my lover
My dreams and my home teams, my brothers and mother
My car, corner bar, tree-lined avenue
But they've all changed too
I read the headlines
In the look on your face
Nevermind those pundits with their politics
They don't want us keeping pace
Sensationalize, divide and
Inflate the bottom line
It appears I've arrived just in time
There's no one left around
Who gives a damn about us
So I'm gonna burn it down, uh huh
With your permission, of course
Show me that birth certificate!
We'll put your change in a tourniquet
We're all gonna be slaves to the Chinese
With VPs on reality TV
The rent's too Goddamn high
You must show us your soul to fly
Can we profit on "eye for an eye?"
There's no one left around
Who gives a damn about us
So I'm gonna burn it down, uh huh
With your permission
How do we look out there planet Mars?
Soon enough you will be all ours
This love, it's grand
This love, it's gay
This love destroys all in it's way
'Til there's no one left around
Who gives a damn about us
Yeah!
There's no one left around
Who gives a damn about us
So I'm gonna burn it down, uh huh
With your permission, of course
