Song Lyrics

"Turn This Off"

by Daniel Amos (D?)
Album: Songs Of The Heart

Too many empty heads, cold hearts, eyes dead,
Inert and inbred,
Drugs, guns and hot lead,
Pierced, spiked and tattooed religious yahoo,
Hot tempers, cheap booze,
Nothing here but bad news,
The center can't hold now,
We don't have the know-how,
Throw it in the hoosegow,
Jesus coming anyhow,
Booted up and head shaved,
Merciless and enraged,
Broke and brooding ingrates,
Faithless, cunning inmates,
Ferocious looking braggarts,
Vacuous and hell-bent,
Where are the plain folk, charitable and decent'
Where are the love songs'
I wonder where the joy went.

Turn this off,
Turn this off.

Too many empty heads, cold hearts, eyes dead,
Inert and inbred,
Drugs, guns and hot lead,
Pierced, spiked and tattooed religious yahoo,
Hot tempers, cheap booze,
Nothing here but bad news,
The center can't hold now,
We don't have the know-how,
Throw it in the hoosegow,
Jesus coming anyhow,
Booted up and head shaved,
Merciless and enraged,
Broke and brooding ingrates,
Faithless, cunning inmates,
These last days, last chance,
Too, too late to turn around,
This is all in plain sight, what about the underground'
Where are the plain folk, charitable and decent'
Where are the love songs'
I wonder where the joy went,
Turn this off,
Turn this off,
Turn this off.
