let me count the ways
decades of excuses. I don’t want to know
my t.v. died today. that was my excuse
because I don’t want to know
I caught that girl justice cutting holes in her blindfold

I’ll take my brother’s hands, from the mother land to father’s grave
and I’ll break those other hands, from other lands, for father’s sake

I was blind the day they broadcasted revolution
I aint gotta know
so let me die today by work of evolution
I aint gotta know

buy me a new car and shiny diamonds
let’s start living in a way old money can’t be bored
buy my foreign cars and bloody diamonds
that’s not given away
