... And The Wings Of The Eagle Are Brown
Their friend was dead
Cut down in his prime
And hung as a message
To those of like mind
Sit down and shut up
Or you'll get the same
So they got the message
And moved underground
Waiting in patience
For the fix of it all
The Devil ain't coming
He lives over there
Just because you live there
Doesn't mean you don't want to see it burn
Like a giant television
Blowing up in front of all the world
They might have done it
To say that it's time
They might have done it
To make sure it was time
And it makes me wonder
If the people living next door
Ache to see a repeat
Of what went on in 64
Now look around you at all that you see
All that you hold dear
And all that you own
Now imagine the distaste
If it wasn't yours
Like a diamond Mercedes
Illegally parked
You just want to break it
Or see it get towed
Really, just because it isn't yours
Their friend was dead
