Last Summer In America

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Mock-apocalyptic in the third decade of this here century Lost on the path of least existence Anyone who's claiming they are not afraid is lying where they stand Let's enjoy the last summer in America This one might be the end [Verse 2] Gradually trained to ignore all suffering Unless it affects me or someone close Every little ripple will go out in a snowball wave of apathy Crushing everything you wanna save thе most Streets once all laid out in dirt now covered with concrеte So enjoy the last summer in America You can't afford to sleep [Verse 3] Seems everyone wakes desperately uncertain of their god Unaware our whole life that the kingdom's getting robbed I got my prescription to take my head and pray for some relief Side effects are drowsiness, insomnia, and yellow teeth Win an education if you don't get killed or play the lottery So enjoy the last summer in America, just as seen on TV [Refrain] Ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ooh-ooh Ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah [Verse 4] Hang it from the firmament to be the proof so everyone will know The emperors that you all worship never had no clothes From the mountains to the prairies to the oceans white with foam Enjoy the last summer in America, it's now illegal to roam [Refrain] Ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ooh-ooh Ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah [Verse 5] We don't want to work on Maggie's farm no more Her brother's such a dick Oh, the value is diluted by reserve Bait and switch a dream [?] they were still denied Programmed in our heads, every moment of our lives [Outro] The bombs will burst in the rocket's red glare Enjoy the last summer in America This winter, we'll prepare (Ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah) Enjoy the last summer in America (Ahh) The land of thoughts and prayers (Ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah) Enjoy the last summer in America (Ahh) If you think that you can, woo (Ahh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah) Enjoy the last summer in America, yeah
