Tin Omen

(All good people are asleep and dreaming)

Every truncheon hit
Misguided
The people's army divided
United stance
Amped out war dance
What a ride
Inner thought of non-violent rebellion
Outside dare to die stand and fight
Show faith return all the weapons
Government says use them right
Fixed action set in motion
Doubting amnesia potion
What to hide red carpet ride
Guess it right
Ahaha, the joke's on
Dark corner the square
Ahaha, you bathe once a week
Distorted, the viewpoint, seldom seen

Way back in '68
Ohio, Kent State
Was nothing
So great
Have of have not
Forcing the point
Shot in the back
Take it back
Down trod soldier away
Flower power
Within
Kill me
Kill this way of life

(All good people are asleep and dreaming)

And be known one by one
They'll be coming down
Altogether
Sister machine gun
Automatic high
What a ride
What a trip
Tripped over the candlestick
Tanks arrive
Fire wall
Got to keep the camera alive
Tell the world
Tell the world what's going on here
Warning shots are fired
At the stomach chest wound
Coed falls
Amped out
Amped out
Amped out
Amped out
Changing guns for brooms
The guards change to cleanup crews

Hahaha, the joke's on you
Dark corner the square
Hahahaha, you bathe once a week
Distorted viewpoint, seldom seen

Way back in '68
Everything was so great
No way
Wrong date
Keep up the trade
Balanced charade
Close circuit truth
Used to remove
Keep the camera alive
(All good people are asleep and dreaming)
What a head trip
