Liberty Cabbage Lyrics - Rufus Wainwright

Sometimes I think You're trying to kill me 

with your stars and stripes 

and sometimes, sometimes your Liberty Cabbage goes dry 

but still your arms are strong 

your blood runs furies inside me. 

Cities of gold, mountains of purple, 

Hot dogs and hamburgers eaten on your laps, 

While you sit and watch them kill me with their stars and stripes 

while you sit and watch them kill me with their stars and stripes 

and sometimes, sometimes your liberty cabbage goes dry 

but tears do flow from those eyes blue as the pacific 

your table cloths checkered as chessboards 

And your smile is wider than the Continental Drift 

But why do you, 

Why do you sit and let them stone my friends and loved ones? 

Sometimes I think you're trying to kill me 

with your stars and strips 

and sometimes, sometimes I think you might succeed
