about
Flies in the face as our promises break
In the land of the slaves, home of the afraid
We are the battered wives of our own politics
The Stockholm captives of crony capitialists
It's like the bible verses that you pick and choose
Or the alternative facts on the fake news
Our rulers, idols, and enemies
Are only the symptoms of our disease
In the land of the slaves, home of the afraid
We are the battered wives of our own politics
The Stockholm captives of crony capitialists
It's like the bible verses that you pick and choose
Or the alternative facts on the fake news
Our rulers, idols, and enemies
Are only the symptoms of our disease
lyrics
Give us your hungry, your tired, your poor
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free
An habitual hypocrisy it's always been this way
Expousing moral creeds but the flag
Flies in the face as our promises break
In the land of the slaves, home of the afraid
We are the battered wives of our own politics
The Stockholm captives of crony capitialists
It's like the bible verses that you pick and choose
Or the alternative facts on the fake news
Our rulers, idols, and enemies
Are only the symptoms of our disease
Entitled to my fantasy and fetishized greed
Oh narcissist's brutality, please make us great again
Amend our history play pretend for nostalgia's sake
Manifest our myths amen but the flag
Flies in the face as our promises break
In the land of the slaves, home of the afraid
We are the battered wives of our own politics
The Stockholm captives of crony capitialists
It's like the bible verses that you pick and choose
Or the alternative facts on the fake news
Our rulers, idols, and enemies
Are only the symptoms of our disease
Flies in the face as our promises break
In the land of the slaves, home of the afraid
We are the battered wives of our own politics
The Stockholm captives of crony capitialists
It's like the bible verses that you pick and choose
Or the alternative facts on the fake news
Our rulers, idols, and enemies
Are only the symptoms of our disease
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free
An habitual hypocrisy it's always been this way
Expousing moral creeds but the flag
Flies in the face as our promises break
In the land of the slaves, home of the afraid
We are the battered wives of our own politics
The Stockholm captives of crony capitialists
It's like the bible verses that you pick and choose
Or the alternative facts on the fake news
Our rulers, idols, and enemies
Are only the symptoms of our disease
Entitled to my fantasy and fetishized greed
Oh narcissist's brutality, please make us great again
Amend our history play pretend for nostalgia's sake
Manifest our myths amen but the flag
Flies in the face as our promises break
In the land of the slaves, home of the afraid
We are the battered wives of our own politics
The Stockholm captives of crony capitialists
It's like the bible verses that you pick and choose
Or the alternative facts on the fake news
Our rulers, idols, and enemies
Are only the symptoms of our disease
Flies in the face as our promises break
In the land of the slaves, home of the afraid
We are the battered wives of our own politics
The Stockholm captives of crony capitialists
It's like the bible verses that you pick and choose
Or the alternative facts on the fake news
Our rulers, idols, and enemies
Are only the symptoms of our disease
