Ani Difranco - Hello Birmingham Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Hold me down
  • I am floating away
  • In to the overcast skies
  • Over my hometown
  • On election day
  • What is it about birmingham?
  • What is it about buffalo?
  • That the hate-filled wanna build bunkers
  • In your beautiful red earth
  • They wanna build them
  • In our shiny white snow
  • Now Ive drawn closed the curtain
  • In this little booth where the truth has no place
  • To stand
  • And Im feeling oh so powerless
  • In this stupid booth with this useless
  • Little lever in my hand
  • And outside my city is bracing
  • For the next killing thing
  • Standing by the bridge and praying
  • For the next doctor
  • Martin
  • Luther
  • King
  • It was just one shot
  • Through the kitchen window
  • It was just one or two miles from here
  • If you fly like a crow
  • A bullet came to visit a doctor
  • In his one safe place
  • A bullet insuring the right to life
  • Whizzed past his kid and his wife
  • And knocked his glasses
  • Right off of his face
  • And the blood poured off the pulpit
  • The blood poured off the picket line
  • Yeah, the hatred was immediate
  • And the vengance was divine
  • So they went and stuff god
  • Down the barrel of a gun
  • And after him
  • They stuffed his only son
  • Hello birmingham
  • Its buffalo
  • I heard you had some trouble
  • Down there again
  • And Im just calling to let you know
  • That somebody understands
  • I was once escorted
  • Through the doors of a clinic
  • By a man in a bulletproof vest
  • And no bombs went off that day
  • So I am still here to say
  • Birmingham
  • Im wishing you all of my best
  • Oh birmingham
  • Im wishing you all of my best
  • Birmingham
  • Im wishing you all of my best
  • On this election day
