Born in the Slumber Songtext
von Flora Cash

We were born in the slumber
No one really cared about us
′Cept for our parents, parents, parents
The government's dead
We were born in the slumber
Nobody cared about us
′Cept for our parents, parents, parents
The government's dead

You'll be alright child
No healthcare, no education
′Cause we don′t want the smart one
You'll be alright girl
Don′t choose what you do with your body
Please somebody, save us


We were born in the slumber
Nobody cared about us
'Cept for our parents, parents, parents
The government′s dead
We were born in the slumber
Nobody cared about us
'Cept for our parents, parents, parents
The government′s dead

We already know
We've seen it before
They've been throwing us crumbs
Don′t be asking for more
You know what it′s for
You know what it's for
You know what it′s for

What if we got out?
What if we went back?
Get somebody unstuck
Get somebody untrapped
What if we held on?
What if we stood strong?
What if we got out, damn?


We were born in the slumber
Nobody cared about us
'Cept for our parents, parents, parents
The government′s dead
We were born in the slumber
Nobody cared about us
'Cept for our parents, parents, parents
The government′s dead

We were born in the slumber
No one cared about us
'Cept for our parents, parents, parents
The government's dead
