| | | Artist: | Kennedys Dead |
| | Album: | Frankenchrist | | Track: | This Could Be Everywhere | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 87 | | | | Lyrics: | words: Biafra
music: Ray/Biafra/Flouride/Peligro
Cold concrete apartments
Rise
up from wet black asphalt
Below them a few carcasses
Of the long gone age of
privacy
It takes a scary kind of illness
To design a place like this for
pay
Downtown's an endless generic mall
Of video games and fast food chains
One
by one
The little houses are bricked up and condemned
A subtle hint to move
Before
the rats move in
This could be anywhere
This could be
everywhere
Those new kids at school seem cool
But dad says not to talk to
them
Stick to your old friends
They're not our kind
So now there's lots of
fights
So many people I know
Come of age tense and bitter-eyed
Can't create so
they just destroy
C'mon!
Let's set someone's dog on fire
Empty
plastic
Culture slum suburbia
Is a war zone now
Sprouting the kinds of gangs
We
thought we'd left behind
This could be anywhere
This could be
everywhere
Kids at school are taking sides
Along color and uniform lines
My
dad's gone and bought a gun
He says he's fed up
With crime in this town
This
could be anywhere
This could be everywhere
This could be anywhere
This could
be everywhere
Anywhere
Everywhere
I hope I'm gone before it
explodes
I linger late at night
Waiting for the bus
No amount of neon
jazz
Could hide the oozing vibes of death
My dad's a vigilante now
He's
bringing home these weird-ass friends
Like the guy who fires blanks at his TV
When Kojak's
on
Or the guy who shows off his submachine gun
To his sixteen-year-old daughter's
friends
Whose sense of pride and hope
Is being in the police reserve
This
could be anywhere
This could be everywhere--Everywhere | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
