《Same Thing(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Same Thing (Album Version) - Flobots

[00:00:13] Somewhere between prayer and revolution

[00:00:16] Between Jesus and Huey P Newton

[00:00:18] Thats where you find Jonny 5 shoot shootin

[00:00:20] Water guns at the audience while youre scootin'

[00:00:23] Youre gluteous max due to the fact that hes tootin'

[00:00:26] On the horn gonna warn you that I'm rootin'

[00:00:28] For the other team in the culture wars

[00:00:30] So I stab the beast belly as the vulture snores

[00:00:33] Yo Joe let it blow with convulsive force

[00:00:35] Till walls fall off their false supports

[00:00:37] Till Jericho's aircraft carriers alter course

[00:00:40] And all brave young Americans are called ashore

[00:00:43] Cause we've already lost the war they keep wagin

[00:00:45] Splatterin the streets in battles that keep ragin

[00:00:48] Bloodyin each page in the story that we're studyin

[00:00:51] Each day the same just the names keep changin

[00:00:54] Sayin the same things over again

[00:00:56] Repeatin the same slogans we don't know where we've been

[00:00:58] We've been all over the globe on our government's funds

[00:01:01] Leavin man woman and child dead bloody and numb

[00:01:03] Sayin the same things over again

[00:01:06] Repeatin the same slogans we don't know where we've been

[00:01:08] Weve been overthrowin leaders with legitimate views

[00:01:11] Democratically elected but we didn't approve

[00:01:14] How many times can the line divide

[00:01:16] How many wars to uphold some pride

[00:01:18] These fears uncontrolled just swoll the tide

[00:01:21] Of blood in the streets while the people die

[00:01:23] Ima keep on tryin long as suffering's multiplyin

[00:01:27] And why not

[00:01:29] These souls gettin tossed and left out to rot

[00:01:31] My backs broad enough to help lift your cross

[00:01:34] As long as you help with mine

[00:01:36] The process of healin will take some time

[00:01:38] To see the pain in your face is the same as mine

[00:01:41] Its not a game or a race but the stakes is high

[00:01:44] We maintain our mistakes for the sake of sides

[00:01:46] As long as it takes Ill say it one more time

[00:01:49] As long as it takes I'll say it one more time

[00:01:51] As long as it takes I'll say it one more time

[00:01:54] Sayin the same things over again

[00:01:56] Repeatin the same slogans we don't know where we've been

[00:01:59] We've been all over the globe on our government's funds

[00:02:01] Leavin man woman and child dead bloody and numb

[00:02:04] Sayin the same things over again

[00:02:06] Repeatin the same slogans we don't know where we've been

[00:02:09] Weve been overthrowin leaders with legitimate views

[00:02:11] Democratically elected but we didn't approve

[00:02:15] (Same thing)

[00:02:17] U S is not us

[00:02:18] (Same thing)

[00:02:19] And us is not we

[00:02:20] (Same thing)

[00:02:21] And we are not satisfied

[00:02:25] (Same thing)

[00:02:27] Were tired of the same thing

[00:02:28] (Same thing)

[00:02:29] And were ready to make change

[00:02:31] (Same thing)

[00:02:32] Are we ready to make change

[00:02:34] We want money for health care and public welfare

[00:02:37] Free Mumia and Leonard Peltier

[00:02:40] Human needs not corporate greed

[00:02:42] Drop the debt and legalize weed

[00:02:44] We say yes to grassroots organization

[00:02:47] No to neoliberal globalization

[00:02:49] Bring the troops back to the U S A

[00:02:52] And shut down Guantanamo Bay

[00:02:54] Who let 'em overthrow Jacobo Arbenz

[00:02:57] Who let 'em overthrow Mohammad Mosaddeq

[00:02:59] Who let 'em assassinate Salvador Allende

[00:03:02] I didn't let them but they did it anyway

[00:03:05] Who let 'em overthrow Kwame Nkrumah

[00:03:07] Who let 'em overthrow Aristide

[00:03:09] Who let 'em assassinate Oscar Romero

[00:03:12] I didn't let 'em but they did indeed

[00:03:15] But dont let them assassinate Hugo Chavez

[00:03:17] Dont let them assassinate Evo Morales

[00:03:20] And bring back Martin Malcolm Medgar

[00:03:22] Hampton Schwerner Goodman Chaney

[00:03:25] Sayin the same things over again
