about

I'm getting discouraged, really discouraged. Maybe history is repeating itself.

lyrics

Remember we called them united states
But we’re raising our kids in divided states
Now I wonder if we still believe united we can stand

Maybe we’re something different now
Something we haven’t quite figured out
Maybe time we separate and each go our own way

Say you want a revolution now
It’s in our DNA anyhow
Fork what the constitution allows
Why don’t we just light a match and

Burn burn burn
Burn it down
Burn burn burn
Burn it down
(Why don’t we) Burn burn burn
Burn it down

So what the hell do we tell the kids
That the country we loved has hit the skids
They called it an experiment and the experiment has failed

I sang once about a broken promise land
Maybe that promise was a bullshirt brand
Does anybody still believe our heartland can stand

Say you want a revolution now
It’s in our DNA anyhow
Fork what the constitution allows
Why don’t we just light a match and

Burn burn burn
Burn it down
Burn burn burn
Burn it down
(Why don’t we) Burn burn burn
Burn it down

Remember we called them united states
But we’re raising our kids in divided states
Remember we called them united states
Now I wonder if we still believe united we can stand

Add dashes of the Allman Brothers Band, World Party and Tom Petty. Let it simmer for a long, long time, until all those flavors meld into the unique, melodic, catchy and indescribable deliciousness we call Storytown. Correct the seasoning. Dig in. ... more
