lyrics

The silver water serpent comes from the air
To beat the black snake with the slicked back hair
The same old story over four hundred years
A tale of broken promises death and tears
My God, what have we done

Turn the faucet on burst into flames
Infested tumors in your brains
Earthquakes rumbling from the underground
If a ghost town falls will it make a sound
Who cares, long as there’s profits on their shares

Leave, get out of this place
All you are is in my way

First they gave the black man Jesus
And when his children cried out “please save us”
They gave the white poor Jim Crow
And told them you’ll always be better than a Negro
Today they call it by a different name
If you’re a Muslim or a Mexican you can’t stay

Leave, get out of this place
All you are is in my way

Handshakes and land grabs
Backroom deals and backstabs
It ain’t a conspiracy just tricks of the trade
Signed sealed delivered with a shake and a wave
It’s not my fault just how the game is played
