In the howling wind comes a stinging rain
See it driving nails into souls
on the tree of pain
From the firefly, a red orange glow
See the face of fear running scared
in the valley below
Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue In the locust
wind comes a rattle and hum
Jacob wrestled the angel and the angel
was overcome
Plant a demon seed, you raise a flower of fire
See them burning crosses
see the flames, higher and higher
Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue
Suit and tie comes up to me
His face red Like a rose on a thorn bush
Like all the colours of a royal flush
And he's peeling off those dollar bills
(Slapping htem down)
one hundred, two hundred,
And I can see the fighter planes
And I can see the fighter planes
Across the mud huts as the children sleep
Through the alleys of a quiet city street
Up the staircase to the first floor
We turn the key and slowly unlock the door
A man breathes deep into saxophone
Through the walls we hear the city groan
Outside is America Outside is America.
