about

Politics in 1988, Jesse Jackson's speech at the Democratic convention. Little has changed...

lyrics

Sound of creation, people walking on the moon
Simple gyrations on the road, in your room
A drunken reverie a stream of neat ideas
An American memory
A stranger to fear
It's not these cigarettes that burn me
I know I'm part of the machine
Just want to find a place where I'm Peaceful and Clean

Suckers on the Esplanade always taken in the game
Ever been in the Bronx Zoo? People are all the same
Counting out the money now, listening to the sweat
Copulation and Architecture, talking with the dead
Screaming bloody murder, having a real good time
Blood surging, hot and thick, falling all over the line

Strange economics drowning people in the gutter
Face down in vomit, parents screaming at each other
Sad situation, rewarding ignorance
Violent gyrations at the Grange Hall dance
Military toughness touches every little boy
Stay out of the basement, that thing isn't a toy
This floor is gonna break through, this hall is gonna bust
This floor is gonna break right through and crumble into dust

Peaceful and clean
Nowhere to be seen
One hundred birds
In a threshing machine
