Iris DeMent - Wasteland of the free

Tekst :

Living in the wasteland of the free...

We got preachers dealing in politics and diamond mines
and their speech is growing increasingly unkind
They say they are Christ s disciples
but they don t look like Jesus to me
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

We got politicians running races on corporate cash
Now don t tell me they don t turn around and kiss them peoples ass
You may call me old-fashioned
but that don t fit my picture of a true democracy
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

We got CEO s making two hundred times the workers pay
but they ll fight like hell against raising the minimum wage
and If you don t like it, mister, they ll ship your job
to some third-world country cross the sea
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

Living in the wasteland of the free
where the poor have now become the enemy
Let s blame our troubles on the weak ones
Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy
Living in the wasteland of the free

We got little kids with guns fighting inner city wars
So what do we do, we put these little kids behind prison doors
and we call ourselves the advanced civilization
that sounds like crap to me
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

We got high-school kids running round in Calvin Klein and Guess
who cannot pass a sixth-grade reading test
but if you ask them, they can tell you
the name of every crotch on mTV
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

We kill for oil, then we throw a party when we win
Some guy refuses to fight, and we call that the sin
but he s standing up for what he believes in
and that seems pretty damned American to me
and it feels like I am living in the wasteland of the free

Living in the wasteland of the free
where the poor have now become the enemy
Let s blame our troubles on the weak ones
Sounds like some kind of Hitler remedy
Living in the wasteland of the free

While we sit gloating in our greatness
justice is sinking to the bottom of the sea
Living in the wasteland of the free
Living in the wasteland of the free
Living in the wasteland of the free.

Iris DeMent - Slaughterhouse

Tekst :

And if the accident will, well we ll both fade away
And I ll leave you still, and we will both be saved
Say oh say , your life will pass away
Only to be saved, by another s lonely stay

All the flowers I can grow and all the children s tears
And everything I know will vanish with the years
Say oh say , your life will pass away
Only to be saved by another s lonely stay

And if the accidents will, well we ll both fade away
But the trees will grow, until my dying day

All the flowers I can grow, and all the children s tears
And everything I know, will vanish with the years
Say oh say , your life will pass away
Only to be saved by another s lonely stay

Iris DeMent - Long way down

Tekst :

Oh, here you are there s nothing left to say
You re not supposed to be that way
Did they push you out
Did they throw your way

Touch me now and I don t care
When you take me I m not there
Almost human but I ll never be the same

Long way down I don t think I ll make it on my own
Long way down I don t want to live in here alone
Long way down I don t think I ll make it on my own

Never put you down I never pushed you away
You re not supposed to be that way
And anything you want there s nothing I could say

Is there anything to feel
Is it pain that makes you real
Cut me off before it kills me

Long way down I don t think I ll make it on my own
Long way down I don t want to live in here alone
Long way down I don t think I ll make it on my own

I never put you down I never pushed you away
Take another piece of me
Give my mind a new disease
And the black and white world never fades to gray

Long way down I don t think I ll make it on my own
Long way down I don t want to live in here alone
Long way down I don t think I ll make it on my own

Inne utwory

Losowe utwory

Souvenir de l est

Souvenirs qui me restent
Que me reste-t-il de mes souvenirs de l est

Un sourire, un gest
Un accroc à ma veste
Que me reste-t-il de mes souvenirs de l est
Un parfum d enfance
Un chagrin qui danse
Une photo de...

Vsyo vremya o tebe

Ja sebja pochti ugovoril
zabyt , ne dumat o tebe
gde ty - teper ne znaju
tol ko dolgimi nochami
zabyvajas zybkim snom
ja padaju v bezvol noe nigde
obnimaju pustotu
ja bol she ne letaju

chto tebja sebe pridumal
dumal
chto tebja sebe doveril
veril

Leaden legacy

I can t look behind because I m living in the past
Tears without emotion are filling up the unbridled hours

[Sicut erat in principio
et nunc et semper et insaecula
saeculorum]

We cannot be
What you expect from us
We...

Dancing with the lion

I dare my life lay down to sleep
To be ashes for each wind that blows
Life shall not rule me anymore
I am damned, so forlorn

I will dance with the lion
I will dance

I wished in silence that it...

Welcome to my world

[Jhaz]
Welcome to my world
You know the procedure
Nothin but playas and trues, man
It s a Jhaz thang
And a sista gets wrecked for her domain
Plain and simple, Ken Dawg rollin with II Tru
Who you wanna bring?...
