RANCID LYRICS - Lady Liberty

"Lady Liberty"



I want nothing to do with your crazy world

Broken promises, just poor annoyances

I am branded by that time, all abandoned and alone

From the contras to the upstarts to shouting Sandanista



Lady Liberty, come down and bleed on me

You had me to believe that the streets are paved in gold

Storming (terrorists?), then the cold hits

Then I come to find that the streets aren't paved at all

From the contras to the upstarts to shoutin Sandanista

From the contras to the upstarts to shoutin Sandanista



From the Kremlin to Afghanistan to the forgotten ones

The orphans in confusion, to distraught refugees

In the fields of poison ivy, through the famine and disease

You bled my loyalty



Lady Liberty, come down and bleed on me

You had me to believe that the streets are paved in gold

Ohh you tell me, not to worry

About the shortcomings of lives and the high cost of living

From the contras to the upstarts to shoutin Sandanistas

From the contras to the upstarts to shoutin Sandanistas



Shoutin Sandinista!!!
