D For Democracy (scour The House) Lyrics - Singles - Spirit Of The West

You with the jaundiced eyes, drunk on your own reflection 

Propped up wiht desks and flags, 8 chairs short of 

Perfection 

Lines drawn here, there and everywhere 

None of your own volition 

Unrecognized you pace you shadow 

Stripped of all your definition 

Scour the house, flip the wig, 

Shake the tree, until your whereabouts are known to me 

You've been abused and cheated, 

Shat on you're beyond defeated 

Those who rise stand in your name, 

Then treat you roughly once they're seated 

Your pen in one, their sword in the other 

Satisfied the blessing is given 

In god they trust only their way one way 

Afraid of the other isms 

Scour the house, flip the wig, 

Shake the tree, until your whereabouts are known to me 

The grass is always greener 

Under western skies 

But your Norman Rockwell nation 

Is being choked by weeds and vines 

Look here the old grey mare 

She ain't what she used to be 

Look here the old grey mayor 

He's all he's cracked up to be 

Scour the house, flip the wig, 

Shake the tree, until your whereabouts are known to me
