Thea Gilmore - Land Of The Free - Sözleri

They're piling bodies up on the plains 

All of the strangers with so many claims and 

All that hope served as a warning 

Now they're falling like dominoes on a late December morning 

And stack up the dead and just leave them 

It proves we've got the last word in patriotism 

And send the live ones to some western reservation 

They've got the wrong coloured skin and ideas above their station 



I'm singing holy homeland 

While a nation is choking 

You smile and say “you know we said land of the free? 

”Yeah, well we were just joking” 



This land is your land 

With one roll of the dice and one guiltless command 

Now you're sitting watching TV 

Accepting moral direction from a crank shrink with an impressive CV 

Your new god is your video screen 

Washed up, spun out by and American dream, 

Only memories of ghosts that patrol this place 

And this land, your land is a terminal case 



You're singing holy homeland 

While a nation is choking 

You smile and say “you know we said land of the free? 

”Yeah, well we were just joking”



Who am I to criticise 

From a country with no problems about selling one another 

I guess we all have our dirty ink stains on the history books 

In the pages, on the cover 

And at dawn storm clouds disappear the future brings all hope and glory 

Ghost dancers rise 500 years 

Like there will never be another end to this story 



I'm singing holy homeland 

While a nation is choking 

You smile and say “you know we said land of the free? 

”Yeah, well we were just joking”
