the car won't start

The car won’t start

 

i want to be brave

what pulls me to destruction?

i can imagine

i still lie to them

it has gotten easier

i’m beyond honor

he befriends woodchucks

he helps out nesting turtles

he knows the eagles

they say he’s lost it

but our green money can be spent

he goes on with life

you, death is coming

you didn’t ask to know when

here it is, friday

you’re out of money

and the car won’t even start

your friends won’t answer

a gang has moved in

you’ve been assured you’ll be killed

you play the good host

a punk draws his gun

the gang leader washes hands

how about a song?

the revolution,

it will not be televised

-- or realized.
