歌曲歌詞
you know where i come from
you know what i feel
you're yul brenner westworld
reporting from the field.
i threw it into reverse,
made a motion to repeal.
you kicked my legs from under me,
and tried to take the wheel.
i told you i wanted to be wrong,
but everyone is humming a song
that i don't understand.
now i know that the sun has shined on my side of the street.
the basket of america, the weevils and the wheat.
the milk and honeyed congregation, scrubbed and apple-cheeked
salute apollo 13 from the rattle jewelry seats.
mythology's seductive and it turned a trick on me
that i have just begun to understand.
i told you i wanted to be wrong,
but everyone is humming a song
that i don't understand.
the rodeo is staged, gold circle goat-ropers and clowns.
a rumble in the third act, tie 'em up and burn 'em down.
we're armed to the teeth, born a little breech;
blue-plate special analysts, cells and suv's
we can't approach the allies 'cause they seem a little peeved
and speak a language we don't understand.
i told you i wanted to be wrong
but everyone is humming a song
that i don't understand.
storm into the boardroom of the conquering elite.
did you recognize the madman who is shouting in the streets?
destroy the things that i don't understand
destroy the things that i don't understand.
