MANIC STREET PREACHERS - Dead Yankee Drawl lyrics

rate me

Bill and ted and wayne's world drawl

Just another dull fucking bore

Vietnam's cool now even superman's believed

Hussein still in power as the media war retreats

Suck your honey until you choke

You are a mechanism of social control

Multi-national aim of one world culture

Turning one dollar into another and another

Dead yankee drawl hey we got your beat

Dead yankee drawl hey we love oscar

Smothering injustice seen through starving eyes

Tearing down forests just to earn a buck

Killed off literature for sex and violence

Fed a generation the equivalent of silence

Dragged jack down to self same bigotry

Passive acceptance of a consumer society

Fake sentiments tying up contracts

Making idols of guitars and haircuts

Multi-national aim of one world culture

Turning one dollar into another and another

Dead yankee drawl hey we got your beat

Dead yankee drawl hey we love oscar

Smothering injustice seen through red indian eyes

Silent race war of sweet hollywood lies

Let's go down to greenwich village and desecrate

The noraid slogans that justify 6 countries hate

Let's go down redondo beach and wax body company

Cos reality for t.v. is disneynot kingrodney

Let's go down to indiana youth centre quickly

Tyson's money ain't as free as junior kennedy's

Dead yankee dead yankee dead yankee drawl
