late at night praising wine
dad telling stories about the draft
does it seem so long ago?
they thought they could change the world over
well, it's worse than '68
now that there's no common cry
CEO's testify
but all we can do is watch on the sidelines
catch a glimpse of the bi-lines
watch the news as it takes it's own life
there's an ex-patriot in everyones own living room
generals generalize
we're caught in a trap that leads us towards
the tv telling our story
from the interests of few
what if we were born overseas...
