Dead yankee drawl


Bill and ted and waynes world drawl
Just another dull fucking bore
Vietnams cool now even supermans believed
Hussein still in power as the media war retreats

Suck your honey until you choke
You are a mechanism of social control
Multi-national aim of one world culture
Turning one dollar into another and another

Dead yankee drawl hey we got your beat
Dead yankee drawl hey we love oscar
Smothering injustice seen through starving eyes
Tearing down forests just to earn a buck

Killed off literature for sex and violence
Fed a generation the equivalent of silence
Dragged jack down to self same bigotry
Passive acceptance of a consumer society

Fake sentiments tying up contracts
Making idols of guitars and haircuts
Multi-national aim of one world culture
Turning one dollar into another and another

Dead yankee drawl hey we got your beat
Dead yankee drawl hey we love oscar
Smothering injustice seen through red indian eyes
Silent race war of sweet hollywood lies

Lets go down to greenwich village and desecrate
The noraid slogans that justify 6 countries hate

Lets go down redondo beach and wax body company
Cos reality for t.v. is disney, not king, rodney

Lets go down to indiana youth centre quickly
Tysons money aint as free as junior kennedys

Dead yankee dead yankee dead yankee drawl

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Manic Street Preachers are a Welsh rock band formed in Blackwood in 1986. Known for their post-punk sound and often political and introspective lyrics, they have achieved great critical and commercial success in the UK. The band's history is however inextricably linked to the mystery surrounding founding member and lyricist Richey Edwards, who disappeared in 1995 after recording only three albums. The group continues to release music and perform successfully, keeping Edwards' memory alive through his powerful words. Among their most representative songs: 'Motorcycle Emptiness', 'A Design for Life' and 'If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next'.
