Shakedown Songtext
von The Vacancies
Shakedown Songtext
All believers stand and face them
Raise our fists under one damn nation
Shoot him in the back, label him a suspect
You′re better off the less you know
Plan another attack fast, sleep behind the tank tracks
Breathe with American coal
With all your best dreams and your worst schemes
Keeping the third world third
Fly all your colors, close your borders
Does it honestly make you feel
Safe, safe, safe, on fire?
There are no miracles, we are not criminals
When they come we'll be ready for the takedown
When they preach we won′t listen to the shakedown
Give our freedom back, we live under a false test
We're not under attack at home
We can't ignore the hard facts, lies of power equal death
When did we lose control?
With all your best dreams and your worst schemes
Keeping the third world third
Fly all your colors, close your borders
Does it honestly make you feel
Safe, safe, safe, on fire?
There are no miracles, we are not criminals
When they come we′ll be ready for the takedown
When they preach we won′t listen to the shakedown
All free thinkers stand and face me
Raise our fists under one damn nation
With all your best dreams and your worst schemes
Keeping the third world third
Fly all your colors, close your borders
Does it honestly make you feel
Safe, safe, safe, on fire?
There are no miracles, we are not criminals
When they come we'll be ready for the takedown
When they preach we won′t listen to the shakedown
Raise our fists under one damn nation
Shoot him in the back, label him a suspect
You′re better off the less you know
Plan another attack fast, sleep behind the tank tracks
Breathe with American coal
With all your best dreams and your worst schemes
Keeping the third world third
Fly all your colors, close your borders
Does it honestly make you feel
Safe, safe, safe, on fire?
There are no miracles, we are not criminals
When they come we'll be ready for the takedown
When they preach we won′t listen to the shakedown
Give our freedom back, we live under a false test
We're not under attack at home
We can't ignore the hard facts, lies of power equal death
When did we lose control?
With all your best dreams and your worst schemes
Keeping the third world third
Fly all your colors, close your borders
Does it honestly make you feel
Safe, safe, safe, on fire?
There are no miracles, we are not criminals
When they come we′ll be ready for the takedown
When they preach we won′t listen to the shakedown
All free thinkers stand and face me
Raise our fists under one damn nation
With all your best dreams and your worst schemes
Keeping the third world third
Fly all your colors, close your borders
Does it honestly make you feel
Safe, safe, safe, on fire?
There are no miracles, we are not criminals
When they come we'll be ready for the takedown
When they preach we won′t listen to the shakedown
