The Other Favorites - Unamericana lyrics

Artist: The Other Favorites

album: Unamericana


It takes a lifetime to undo
The stain of a single voice
Honey in an open wound
Thick black flies to feast on your poison
Rebel thrown from his nag
Face down and drowned in the shallows
Whose blood dyed your flag?
Whose hands paved the road to the gallows?
It's all been seen before
Righteous for the wrong horde
Wretched pretenders to the throne
Crowns set with rhinestones

Fortify the wood and brass
Blunt blades broken by the whetstone
Gaping mouths stuffed with glass
Battle cries cut down to the jawbone
Who built these fragile things?
Throw your body on the gears, there's evil in the carbon
Rolled stones and waxen wings
Long ago, we made our bargain
It's all been seen before
Righteous for the wrong horde
Wretched pretenders to the throne
Crowns set with rhinestones
It's all been said before
We're pilgrims on a strange shore
Wretched pretenders to the throne
Says so on our headstones
Agents and sages
Speak the truth to the horde, thank the Lord, thank the Lord
This vessel's sailing
Making haste from the shore, thank the Lord, thank the Lord
There's room for one more
All aboard, all aboard
There's room for one more
All aboard, all aboard
There's room for one more
All aboard, all aboard
