Fifteen - Petroleum Distillation Lyrics
I've been having a hard time trying to justifyThe clouds arising from the cars we driveAnd a little too easy seems just a little too hard todayAnd I'm afraid my children are going to have to watch the world waste awayBeen having a hard time trying to accept the factThat paying money for four walls leaves the slavery intactAnd a little too easy seems just a little too hard todayAnd I'm afraid my children are going to have to watch the world slip awayI know, I know, I know, life has become slaveryCosts two dollars a minute and additional charges to pray to god todaySee I've been looking for some guidance but the voice on the phone ain't got a damn thing to sayAnd a little too easy seems just a little too hard todayAnd I'm afraid my children are going to have to watch the world fade awayI was born a little too late to see the dream that they called AmericaSee I only want to be a Free man but it's against the law to sleep on the ground in Gods landAnd a little too easy seems just a little bit insaneAnd I'm afraid I'm going to have to run for my life one of these daysI know, I know, I know, life has become slaveryThe ground is my body, it's been poisoned with lead and junk food and toxic wasteThe sky is my mind it's been clouded with cigarettes and fluorocarbons and petroleum distillatesThe water's my heart, it's been broken with booze and drugs and shooting up pasteThe sun is my spirit, it belongs to all of us, I guess we're all one sick raceAnd autonomy shall reward itself with freedomAnd humility shall reward itself with peaceAnd the dissolution of possession and the integration of humanityShall bring forth a sharing of our responsibilityFor our lives and our earth
