Mojo Nixon - Burn Down The Malls lyrics
rate meBurn down the malls<br />
Burn down the malls<br />
<br />
Burn down the shoppin' malls<br />
<br />
I said Burn down the malls<br />
<br />
said burn down the shoppin' malls<br />
<br />
burna burna burna burna down shoppin' maaalls<br />
<br />
Hey you ever get the feelin that America is turning into some kinda sit-com?<br />
lowest common denominator<br />
<br />
shopping mall marketing strategy from hell?<br />
<br />
You ever get that feeling?<br />
<br />
Well I got that feeling right now<br />
<br />
and it's kinda getting under my skin<br />
<br />
yeah<br />
<br />
so get some gas-o-line<br />
<br />
and<br />
<br />
Burn down the malls SAY IT<br />
Burn down the malls LOUDER<br />
<br />
Burn down the malls <br />
<br />
You know it just started out as a kind of corner store<br />
Then it turned into a shopping center<br />
<br />
Oh I remember the shoppin' center openings man<br />
<br />
they used to have those big lights shinin' up<br />
<br />
but now...<br />
<br />
Now, where do the old folks go?<br />
<br />
Where do the young kids go?<br />
<br />
What's America, what's America turning into?<br />
<br />
Mondo-condo-shopping-mall-hell<br />
<br />
I say<br />
<br />
Burn down the malls<br />
Burn down the malls<br />
<br />
Burn down the malls<br />
<br />
Nero had the right idea-<br />
fiddle while you burn...<br />
<br />
Now another thing is kinda gettin' on my nerves...<br />
<br />
another thing that's kinda gettin' on my nerves is this<br />
<br />
national 21 drinking age<br />
<br />
Huh? what do ya think about that?<br />
<br />
A bunch of malarky<br />
<br />
whatever malarky is man<br />
<br />
it's a whole bunch of it..<br />
<br />
you know if Reagan finally gets the war he's lookin for<br />
<br />
you think he's gonna be draftin' 21 year olds?<br />
<br />
No man they're gonna be draftin' 18 and 19 year olds<br />
<br />
but ya cant buy beer<br />
<br />
you can get married and screw yourself up real good<br />
<br />
but ya can't buy beer<br />
<br />
ya can charge 8 million dollars on the mastercharge<br />
<br />
but ya can't buy beer<br />
<br />
you can vote for one fool or another<br />
<br />
but ya can't buy beer<br />
<br />
'cause this is America<br />
<br />
America that's run by the lowest common denominator<br />
<br />
the money<br />
<br />
how many units did ya move Mojo?<br />
<br />
how many things of apple juice did ya sell?<br />
<br />
c'mon suckers- c'mon feel it<br />
<br />
Burn down the malls<br />
Burn down the malls<br />
<br />
Burn down the malls<br />
<br />
Alright all you weirdo's out there<br />
all you moralistic twisted evil little icepickers<br />
<br />

<br />
we wanna decide what you read<br />
<br />
what you watch<br />
<br />
what you listen to<br />
<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />
then we're gonna then we're gonna<br />
<br />

<br />
