Andrew Jackson Jihad - Survival Song lyrics
rate meI broke my promise on a very sharp rock<br />
And I was possessed by something quite unfriendly<br />
And I was haunted by a demon in my sleep<br />
And that's how I learned how to survive<br />
<br />
And I gave a beer to a bum that was drinking<br />
And I gave some sauce to my bestest friend for cooking<br />
And I gave water to all I thought were thirsty<br />
And that's how I learned how to survive<br />
<br />
I gave my money to the bank for safe keeping<br />
And I gave my money to my landlord he was needing it<br />
And I gave attention to the T.V. that was bleeding<br />
And that's how I learned how to survive<br />
<br />
But if you ain't got the do-re-mi boys<br />
If you got the do-re-mi<br />
Well you better go back to beautiful Texas<br />
Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, Tennessee<br />
California's a garden of Eden, a paradise to live in or see<br />
But believe it or not you won't find it so hot<br />
If you ain't got the do-re-mi<br />
<br />
And we totally ripped off a man named Woody Gutherie<br />
And I bought a restaurant for his son named Alice<br />
And I fed false information to the audience<br />
And that's how I learned how to survive<br />
<br />
And I give a thank-you to my father for not raising me<br />
And I give a finger to my step-father for beating me<br />
And I give props to myself for achieving<br />
And god damn I'm glad that I survived<br />
And god damn I'm surprised that I survived<br />
<br />
We just handed you a giant load of gibberish<br />
And I give love to a lover quite deserving of it<br />
And I give thanks to all of you for listening<br />
To the story of how we learned how to survive
