Monsters of Folk - Baby Boomer lyrics
We've got to stand a little closer
To what it is we're leaning on
Who was it that first said it?
Could it be he could be wrong
About the pilgrims and the natives
Having dinner on the lawn?
I think if I was ever king
I would buy a censorship
Where the only books upon the shelves
Were the ones that I had read
Open 'em up at borders
Send my photo down the spine
To tell the story of the living
Without forgetting those who died
And I would die a happy man
'Cause I did the best that I could do
To find a better way of leavin'
Should we leave that up to you
Who was it that first said it?
Yeah, the one who said it best
You've got to L O V E your neighbors
At least the ones who are still left
We've got to stand a little closer
To the lessons that we've learned
Is it just a premonition
Could we really get ourselves [Incomprehensible]Monsters of Folk - Baby Boomer - http://motolyrics.com/monsters-of-folk/baby-boomer-lyrics.html
I've been sent here on a mission
To find what we agreed upon
We don't agree about September
Can we agree on Vietnam?
I think if I was ever a publisher
I'd buy a pirate ship
Where the mission at each position
Is to shoot and to clear
Clean the photos up a little
Censor the ship out of it
So I would put it up at borders
Turn a profit on my trip
Charge the public
For the overhead of 1492
And if they need a better reason
Tell 'em we got living proof
And I would die a happy man
'Cause I did the best that I could do
To find a better way of leavin'
Should we leave that up to you
Who was it that first said it
Yeah, that's what I'm trying to say
You've got to L O V E your neighbors
At least the ones who live today
